Patients from Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Rajshahi, Khulna and across Bangladesh travel to India each year — over 50% of all medical tourists to India come from Bangladesh. Procedures include cardiac surgery, oncology, neurosurgery, spine surgery, kidney transplant, BMT and complex paediatric care, at 60–80% lower cost than Singapore or Thailand.
