As far as private medical treatments and cosmetic procedures are concerned, the rest of world could teach the West a lesson as far as cost is concerned. A British NHS waiting list can literally have you hanging around for over a year, and the cost of private healthcare makes it only viable for those with large expendable income who can afford these procedures without going into debt.
Travelling overseas for treatment and procedures is nothing new, but now that more people have even less to spend, they are going ever further afield to seek the treatment they require and save as much as they can. One of the most popular destinations for overseas procedures is now India.
While some may baulk at the idea of travelling to India for treatments due to the pictures we seen on television of the slums in Delhi and the like, remember that India has excellent clinics and training establishments and there are thousands of Indian doctors who are trained to the same standard as those who trained in the UK.
India is a vast and beautiful country, and the perfect place to recuperate after any kind of procedure and treatment, it is also very easy to organise your trip, and even taking into consideration the price of your flights and accommodation, you are still going to save a small fortune compared to what you would have to pay in the West.
Simply log online and input the phrase Medical Tourism India into a search engine. Take time to check out the various sites find which one offers the kind of treatment or procedure that you require. They should also assist you in finding flights, accommodation, transfers etc. The prices shouldn’t vary too much between the clinics, so if you find one an awful lot cheaper alarm bells should ring, just as they would in this country.
If you have the cash and aren’t prepared to wait or pay over the top medical bills it is well worth checking out the clinics in India. The highly qualified professionals who will take of you will have you looking and feeling great without breaking the bank.
