Services
Before and during your trip
Speak to a specialist by video before you travel, then let us look after every step from your arrival to your flight home.
Speak to an Indian specialist by video before you travel
Where the hospital offers it, we arrange a video consultation with a specialist at a partner hospital before you decide to travel. You discuss your reports, ask your questions and leave with a clearer plan.
Video consultationAirport-to-airport care, from the day you land to the day you fly home
We coordinate every step of your treatment trip: the visa documents, your arrival, accommodation near the hospital, your admission and stay, and your return flight. One team stays in touch with you and your family throughout.
Airport to airportHow it works
How it works
Five clear steps. We stay in touch with you at every one.
- Step 1
Share your reports
Send a short description and your latest medical reports by WhatsApp or email. Sharing them does not commit you to anything.
- Step 2
Hospital opinion and written estimate
We send your reports to our partner hospitals. A specialist reviews them and tells you what treatment is advised, with an estimate in writing.
- Step 3
Visa and travel
We help you prepare the medical visa documents and the hospital invitation letter, and we arrange flights and accommodation near the hospital.
- Step 4
Treatment in India
We coordinate your arrival, admission and stay with the hospital, so you and your family know what happens each day.
- Step 5
Back home and follow-up
We help you collect your discharge summary and arrange follow-up consultations with the hospital after you return.
Questions about this treatment
Am I eligible for weight-loss surgery?
It depends on your body mass index, related health conditions and previous attempts to lose weight. The surgeon decides after reviewing your reports.
What happens after I return home?
Diet and follow-up matter as much as the operation. We arrange follow-up consultations with the hospital team and help you share progress reports.
