Why Choose India for Heart Treatment
Experienced surgeons, accredited hospitals, advanced cardiac facilities, short waiting times and affordable cost — here is why India works for international heart patients.
International patients choose India for heart treatment because it combines experienced cardiac surgeons, accredited hospitals and advanced facilities with costs that are far lower than private care in Western and Gulf countries — and with little or no waiting list. VNR coordinates this care at DDMM Heart Institute for patients worldwide.
Affordable cardiac surgery
Heart surgery in India typically costs a fraction of private-hospital rates in Europe, North America, the Gulf and Southeast Asia, without compromising on surgical quality.

DDMM Heart Institute's cardiac team, led by Dr. Sanjeeth Peter (MS, MCh, DNB, FIACS), has performed over 10,000 cardiac surgeries.
Advanced cardiac facilities
A dedicated Siemens cardiac cath lab, Siemens EPIQ 7 4D echocardiography and an 18-bed cardiac ICU support complex cardiac care.
