I am planning to get the Double Valve Replacement Surgery in India. I have been tired of trying to get it in the NHS. The cost is supposed to be very low in India and I have heard the Hospitals are good.

Many patients travel from UK, Ireland, and Scotland to get low cost Double Valve Replacement surgery in India. One of the most frequently asked questions when considering Double Valve Replacement surgery is the price of surgery in India.
But you should consider some other factors as well such as: ---
a) Check whether after the Double Valve Replacement surgery you will stay in the hospital or be discharged and taken to a hotel; ask about special care or assistance after the Double Valve Replacement surgery and about contingency plans in case of complications during the procedure or recovery time.
b) Do they recommend having a close friend or family member travel with you to provide support for Double Valve Replacement Surgery In India.
c) Find out when the India’s high season is so that you can avoid exorbitant flight prices and enjoy more moderate weather.
d) Read up on local costs, the prices of meals, transport and hotels, how easy is it to travel around and whether it is considered safe to do so
The reasons for choosing to travel abroad for Double Valve Replacement surgery are different for everyone but with lengthy NHS waits and concerns about MRSA advantage of affordable, high quality private healthcare in India, and combining it with a tropical, cultural or relaxing holiday saving thousands of pounds compared with having the treatment done privately in the UK.
I checked out the website of Forerunners Healthcare – which is the premier most medical tourism company in India offering Double Valve Replacement surgery in India to International Patients. They have served more than 400 International patients from across the globe (especially US and UK) to get low cost affordable surgery in India at the best Hospitals and Medical Institutions. I think this could be of help for you as well.

DONT BOTHER!!!!! i have seen many shows about surgery in other countries, there standards of hygene are jnot the same that you would get in the uk and once its done a messed up you are stuck with it and need to start your que again for the NHS to pick up the mess they have made!
it is very risky
i would advise against it!
