Treatment in Delhi for international patients

If you are travelling to India for medical care, PGH makes the trip easier. We have a dedicated international patient desk that handles your visa letter, airport pickup, hotel near the hospital, interpreter support, and the medical paperwork from your first email to the flight home.

You see senior consultants, not residents. Treatment costs are usually a fraction of what they would be in the UK, the Gulf, or Africa. And because PGH is a full super speciality hospital with twelve departments under one roof, most cases are handled start to finish without you having to move between facilities.

Who we treat

PGH regularly sees patients from Bangladesh, Nepal, Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria, Uzbekistan, and the UK Indian diaspora.

The most common reasons international patients come to us:

Orthopaedic surgery, including knee and hip replacement

Cancer treatment (surgical, medical, and radiation oncology)

Cardiology consultations and procedures

IVF and fertility treatment

Laparoscopic gynaecological surgery

Bariatric and gastro surgery

Cataract and LASIK

Dental implants and full-mouth rehabilitation

Comprehensive health check-ups
