Incre’DELHI’ble India – Medical Tourism with ‘Commonwealth’ Experience

July 30, 2010 - PRLog -- New Delhi, India: Come this October and experience the great spectacle called the Commonwealth Games in the National Capital of India - DELHI! As per the official estimates, about 4 million people, including players, officials from 54 member countries, and a large number of supporters and tourists from all parts of the world.

And what an incredible opportunity for The National Capital Region of Delhi to showcase itself! Indeed, the Delhi Govt. is putting in some efforts to give uplift to its image and we hope the visitors return home with a much better impression of the city, as well as the country on the whole. But there is one aspect to which no one has paid attention as yet.

How many people in the world know that The National Capital Region of Delhi (NCR), in little time, has emerged as an important destination for Medical Tourism? Few people, in fact, even understand this term. Please take note that presently the NCR is providing state of the art medical facilities comparable to any part of the world, and that too at the most reasonable price.

Just a decade ago, few lucky affluent patients from India used to make it to the US or the UK for select procedures like Open Heart Surgery, or a Skin Grafting. Unlike then, today we see a paradigm shift with not only the Americans and Europeans, but people from the third-world countries, flying to India to get all sorts of medical treatments.

Today, there is not a single line of treatment that is not taken care of in NCR today. With the coming up of some of the best medical centers, equipped with ultra-modern equipment and experience of highly qualified medical experts, Delhi is offering much more than what most of the other parts of the world are.

See Taj without Glasses
The National Capital of Delhi offers some of the top ophthalmic & ocular surgeons, complimented with first generation technology and medical service excellence. The evolution of Laser Surgery has made the removal of eye glasses or contact lenses extremely convenient and much more affordable. Patients can get their glasses removed within 3-4 hours and resume their daily chores without any interruption. While the standard Laser surgeries start from INR 20,000, the blade-less i-LASIK is accomplished in less than INR 1,00,000.
With Commonwealth Games just around the corner, some of the leading eye-care centers have already started releasing special packages for comprehensive eye-checkups, vision correction, contact lenses, squint correction, and many more.

Cosmetic Surgeries
Non-invasive face and neck lifts are in vogue! In the past one year, the National Capital has witnessed the mushrooming of specialized cosmetic care centers, which provide those treatments that are unpopular in the multi-specialty hospitals. Such treatments include mesotherapy, FDA-approved ‘Thermage’ skin treatments, non-invasive body contouring, tattoo removal, non-invasive rhinoplasty, etc. These surgeries are equally effective, cost less and saves significant amount of time, as compared to the conventional surgical procedures.
Such treatments can become an incredible opportunity for such clinics during the Commonwealth Games, when people would not want to miss the events, though, still get the treatments done in a jiffy.

Smile with Confidence
Ever wondered, a teeth cleaning in INR 800 or fillings starting from just INR 600? With dental treatments barely covered under insurance, the National Capital has become a hub for medical tourists. From an impacted teeth removal to the most advanced Inman Aligners, the dental clinics are all geared up to offer a broad array of dental treatments.
Most of the clinics have already announced exclusive dental packages at never-before prices especially during the Commonwealth Games. Such packages would include a comprehensive dental checkup, free medical consultation, and complementary fillings to name a few.

Spine Therapies
The advent of osteopathy and chiropractic disciplines has made the treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders, especially the spine, quite effective and affordable. With sessions starting at a minimal price of INR 2,000, chiropractic can surely be an opportunity to seek for the medical tourists.

Non-conventional Treatments
India is the place, when it comes to the non-conventional treatments, such as Ayurveda, Homeopathy, or traditional massage therapies. Although, these are quite popular in the Southern part of India, the past one year has witnessed an unprecedented growth of similar medical centers in the hill-tops of North India. With Delhi being the central location, these centers are available within a radius of a 5-hour drive.

In addition to these key medical areas, the visitors can also avail facilities for executive health check-ups, free medical consultation, low-cost diagnostic tests, etc.

It is a golden opportunity in the form of the ensuing Games to propagate this very important form of tourism. The British Commonwealth consists of countries of varying degrees of affluence. There are some of the richest nations of the world like Australia, New Zealand and Canada on one hand, and some of the developing ones from Africa, Asia and other parts. What required is an attempt to put forth before the visitors a clear image of this newly acquired skill of ours, and convince them of the advantages that are being offered.

Medical Tourism facilitators are already playing an important role in this field. But something has to be done by the Governments, both Central and State to give a shot in the arm to this growing baby.
