Patients from 40+ countries have travelled to India through GoMed. Here are some of their stories.
I was quoted $118,000 in the US. GoMed matched me to Narayana Health and my total bill β including flights and two weeks in a serviced apartment β came to just under $9,000. The IPC coordinator met me at the airport and never left my side. I cannot recommend this service enough.
My coordinator spoke fluent Arabic and handled every single appointment. Apollo's international patient wing felt like a five-star hotel. The surgery went perfectly and I was walking without a frame on day three. The savings were extraordinary β over 80% compared to a Dubai private hospital.
The GoMed team pre-screened my records before we even travelled, which meant we knew the transplant was viable before spending a single shilling on flights. The 90-day check-in programme after discharge gave my family enormous peace of mind. My IPC coordinator is still available on WhatsApp if I need anything.
I was nervous about travelling alone but my Russian-speaking coordinator made everything seamless. Both knees replaced in one surgery, 6 days in hospital, and I was back in Moscow walking normally within 5 weeks. The total cost was less than one knee would have cost me privately in Moscow.
Three Indian hospitals gave me quotes within 48 hours β with full cost breakdowns including implant brand. No hidden charges, no surprises. The surgery was flawless. My back pain of 4 years is completely gone. I saved over $60,000 compared to the London quote I had received.
After two failed cycles in France I was losing hope. GoMed matched us to a clinic with an 18% higher success rate for my specific condition. Our coordinator handled the visa, accommodation, and translation at every appointment. We are expecting our first child in October.
