Why Myanmar Patients Choose India
Burmese-speaking patient coordinators guide you from your first WhatsApp message through admission, surgery and discharge, so language is never a barrier between you and your doctor.
Just a 2-3 hour direct flight from Yangon to Kolkata (or onward to Chennai, Bengaluru and Delhi) puts JCI-accredited Indian hospitals closer and faster to reach than most overseas options.
Save 40-60% versus treatment costs for comparable private care, with transparent all-inclusive packages quoted upfront in USD so there are no surprise bills.
Access world-class care in the specialties Myanmar patients travel most for: cardiac surgery and angioplasty, cancer treatment, liver and kidney transplants, orthopedic joint replacement, and neurosurgery.
Skip the long waits and limited capacity of Yangon and Mandalay hospitals and get seen by senior super-specialist surgeons within days of arrival.
A well-established Burmese patient community and on-ground support help with airport pickup, nearby accommodation, Burmese and halal-friendly meals, and prayer arrangements for Muslim and Buddhist patients alike.

“My father needed heart bypass surgery and the wait in Yangon was too long. Navaid arranged everything in days, and having a coordinator who spoke Burmese made my mother feel safe the whole time. The cost was far less than we expected and the care in Chennai was excellent.”
