India has some of the most highly qualified and experienced physicians in the world. With a cultural emphasis on education, most of these physicians have gone on to super-specialize in their field, enabling them to become experts in their respective medical specialties. Further, most of the physicians that are in the GSS network, have had additional hands on training at leading medical centers throughout the US, Europe and other countries.

In addition to traditional medicine, India offers many more relaxing and rejuvenating treatment options from yoga, ayurveda, and meditation to allopathic and naturopathic medicine.

India also offers world-class travel destinations such as the Taj Mahal, the beaches of Goa, the backwaters of Kerala and hiking in the Himalayas to name a few

In recent years, several private hospitals have opened up that are designed to provide world-class medical care in India. These hospitals utilize some of the best medical equipment that is available world-wide. A specific example of such a hospital is one located in Mumbai, which has been designed per guidelines from the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, to ensure that they meet rigorous international standards. This hospital focuses on patient safety and comfort and has been designed in such a way that will minimize the risk of infection. GSS has carefully evaluated and selected only those hospitals that meet very high international standards to be a part of our network. Please visit our Hospital Network page for further details.

Your physician in India will make an assessment of your recovery and make a decision as to when it may be possible for you to travel.

The potential cost savings for medical tourists are huge and as a result are one of the more important factors in seeking treatment in India. It is important to note that the cost for each individual will vary depending on their need and requirements. Usually, an elective procedure such as a knee replacement would cost on average of $30,000 in the US. Whereas getting that same procedure done using similar quality parts in India would cost 40 - 60% less than the cost in the US, including the hospital stay, all procedure and physicians costs and transportation to and from India. This is mainly possible because of favorable currency exchange rates.
