Medical Treatment in India from Ghana: What Ghanaian Patients Need to Know 2026
Ghana sends a growing number of medical tourists to India every year. From Accra, patients travel to India for cancer treatment, cardiac surgery, kidney and liver transplants, orthopaedic procedures, and fertility treatment — at 50–70% lower cost than private hospitals in Accra or treatment abroad in Europe.

Chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy — all available at NABH oncology centres at a fraction of UK or USA costs.
Cardiac Surgery
Bypass surgery from $6,000–10,000 vs $50,000+ in the UK. No waiting lists — surgery within 5–10 days.
Kidney Transplant
$12,000–18,000 in India vs $250,000+ in the USA. Living donor transplant option for shorter wait time.
Orthopaedic Surgery
Knee and hip replacement with Stryker and Zimmer implants — same brands used in UK and USA hospitals.
