The stress and strains of modern day living, compounded with lifestyle excesses has resulted in a rise in heart problems among citizens across the world.  Shortness of breath, pain in chest, and blocked arteries are just some of the more popular symptoms people experience before finally going in for coronary angioplasty surgery.  The cost of this procedure hovers around $7500 in the United States and about £ 3750 in the United Kingdom.  The prospect of such an exorbitant rate is sure to heighten stress levels even more.  But there is a way out.  Medical tourism destinations like India, Thailand, and Singapore offer this and other procedures at attractive costs.  And fortunately, you won't necessarily have to sacrifice on quality or service either.  In fact, in many cases the care and treatment that you'll receive is superior to what you can find back home.   

Take a Health Vacation in India

India is fast emerging as a medical tourism destination of repute with hospitals like Wockhardt and Apollo providing world class yet affordable services. The Wockhardt chain of hospitals specializes in coronary angioplasty surgery and offers the procedure for about US$3500.  During a coronary angioplasty, doctors insert a tiny balloon through the nerves of the patient until it reaches the blocked artery.  The balloon is then inflated to help clear the clogged artery.  Recovery after coronary angioplasty surgery typically lasts 2 days with hospitalization.   

Joint ventures with international big names, a team of highly qualified doctors, international accreditation, and great service are the USP of super specialty hospitals in India.  In addition, foreign tourists can take exciting health vacations and explore parts of the country after their surgeries.       

Choose From Many Medical Tourism Destinations

A health vacation enthusiast today has the option of choosing which country he or she wants to visit for a procedure.  In an effort to woo foreign tourists and their foreign exchange, most countries in the medical tourism business offer competitive rates and services.  The patient has never had it better.
