Jacquie B, Canada - Birmingham Hip Resurfacing Surgery in India - Newspaper Story in The Powell River Peak 2007
Surgery in India offers leg up 12/20/2007 Jeremy Bloom -- Staff Writer The Powell River Peak 2007, British Columbia, Canada
Once upon a time, rock stars and celebrities went to India seeking enlightenment. It was the hip thing to do. Jacquie Brock went for a different kind of hip. The Cranberry Lake resident is a poster child for what it means to be active and healthy in one's senior years. Except for her hip. She started having mobility problems several years ago. The situation wasn't life-threatening, but the pain of even simple movement and walking was making life miserable for her.
Unfortunately, getting medical procedures that don't involve life and death, like hip replacement , can be a painfully slow process.
"It was going downhill fast," said Brock. "In July I was in the doctor's office and he phoned a clinic on Vancouver Island. They said, 'she's on the list to get on the list to see a specialist, and we'll phone her in September or October.' Not for an appointment, just for an update on the list."
This is how she found herself in Chennai, India. Medical travel has become big business--a multi-billion dollar business by some estimates, with patients from the United States (US), Canada and Europe taking advantage of lower costs in India, Singapore and Thailand to get cut-rate dental care and surgery.
Healthbase , a US company, arranged all the details of Brock's procedure, from anaesthetic to X-rays. The company even arranged all necessary visas.

Herbert M - Birmingham Hip Resurfacing Surgery in India

"I am back in California and I feel better and stronger by the day. My arthritic pain has been gone since I woke up after surgery and the only pain that remains is related to the surgery itself (muscles and tendons) and this pain is minimal and going away rapidly. I had a great experience in India. All at the Apollo hospital, from Dr. Bose to the entire supporting staff at the hospital more than met my expectations. I believe in what I did and will promote it to all the people I know. Thanks for all of Healthbase support... The way you followed up with me goes a long way and I thank you for it. -Herbert M. California, USA"

travel and accommodation, all at one place. We arrange first class
services for patients at major internationally accredited hospitals in
Singapore, Thailand, India, Mexico, Panama, Turkey, Costa Rica, Hungary and expanding to

ever growing network of affiliated institutions is typically a fraction
of the cost of care in the U.S. with equal or superior outcomes.
Healthbase's Dental Tourism provides a wide range of dental procedures through its partner dental offices and hospitals network in Mexico, Panama, Thailand, Singapore and India.
Over two hundred medical, dental and cosmetic procedures
are available in various categories: Orthopedic procedures such
as hip replacement,
Birmingham hip resurfacing, artificial knee replacement, knee surgery, cosmetic
procedures such as breast augmentation, face lift,
rhinoplasty (nose surgery), liposuction, dental
procedures such as bridges, implants, crowns, and procedures in
categories such as cardiac, vascular, spinal, obesity, eye, LASIK,
urology, general surgery, plastic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, weight-loss surgery,
wellness and much more. The savings are up to 80% from typical
USA prices.
Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad
to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also
called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical
Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is
usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad
for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments.
Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and
tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
