All treatments

Photodynamic therapy

A light-sensitive medicine and a special light used together to destroy cancer or pre-cancer cells.

Pending doctor check

What it is

A medicine that collects in abnormal cells is given, then the area is lit with a laser or lamp. The light switches the medicine on and it destroys those cells.

Who needs it

People with some skin cancers and pre-cancers, and some early cancers of the food pipe or lung.

Typical hospital stay
Usually no hospital stay, or one night. Your hospital confirms it for your case.
Recovery time
Treated skin is sore for a few days. You must keep out of bright light for some time afterwards.

What affects the cost

Every patient gets their own estimate, in writing, from the hospital. These are the things that move it.

  1. 01

    The hospital and the city

    Room types, equipment and running costs differ from one hospital to the next.

  2. 02

    The doctor

    A surgeon's fee follows their experience and how complex the operation is.

  3. 03

    The technique and the materials

    Keyhole or robotic surgery, and the make of any implant, can change the price.

  4. 04

    Your health

    Other conditions, earlier treatment and the tests you need before treatment all count.

  5. 05

    How long you stay

    Days in hospital, any time in intensive care and the weeks you spend recovering in India.

  6. 06

    What else you need

    Physiotherapy, medicines to take home and follow-up visits are added only if your doctor asks for them.

The estimate is not final until the doctor has examined you in India. If anything changes, we explain it before you agree to it.
