How it works for Kenyan patients

One coordinated pathway, from your reports to your discharge

Kenyan patients regularly travel to India for cancer treatment, cardiac surgery, joint replacement and spine care. MedTrav arranges a specialist review of your reports before departure, then plans the hospital, visa documents and logistics around a written estimate.

Plan before you fly

A hospital specialist reviews your reports first and confirms the treatment plan, the expected stay and the cost.

Itemised, written estimates

You see what is included — surgery, room, ICU days, follow-up — so there are fewer surprises at billing.

Follow-up with your Kenyan doctor

Discharge summaries and imaging are shared with your doctor in Kenya, with tele-consultation check-ins after you return.

Visa, travel and practical details

What to plan before you leave Kenya

Visa route

We arrange the hospital invitation letter and Medical Reference Number. Eligible nationalities apply online for the e-Medical Visa; we confirm that your passport qualifies and which route applies before you apply.

Getting there

Nairobi has direct and one-stop options to Indian cities. Your coordinator books the airport pickup and first appointment.

Language

Coordination and care are in English; we can arrange interpreters where needed.

Insurance and payments

If you have medical insurance, ask your insurer whether treatment abroad is covered. We provide the estimate and documents it will request.

Visa rules and appointment availability change. This page is general guidance, not immigration advice — confirm current requirements with official sources and your case manager. See our full medical visa guide.

Can I get an opinion without travelling?

Yes. Send your reports and a specialist will review them remotely before you decide.

What does treatment cost?

See the indicative ranges below, with approximate KES figures. Your written estimate is confirmed after your reports are reviewed.

Can my family come with me?

Up to two attendants can travel with the patient on a medical attendant visa linked to the hospital letter.

How do I start?
