  • Neurosurgery involves operations on the brain or spine, often using the latest technologies like robotic surgery, which improves recovery time and accuracy​.

Orthopaedics (Bone and Joint Care)

  • These treatments are crucial for patients with injuries or age-related conditions affecting movement.

How to Get Started with Treatment in India

Getting Started with Medical Treatment in India: A Guide

Step 1: Initial Consultation and Diagnosis

  • Before travelling, it’s essential to get an expert opinion on your medical condition. Many Indian hospitals, such as Apollo Hospitals offer remote consultation services where patients can share their medical reports online and receive a diagnosis or second opinion from specialists​.
  • This step helps patients understand the treatment options and estimated costs before making any travel arrangements​.

Step 2: Obtaining a Medical Visa

  • To receive treatment in India, Bangladeshi patients need to apply for a medical visa. This can be done online via the Indian visa application website. The process typically requires documents such as medical reports, passport copies, and a letter of invitation from the hospital​.
  • Bangla Health Connect provides complete support by coordinating with Apollo Hospitals to obtain the necessary invitation letter and other documentation, making the application process seamless. For more detailed guidance on seeking medical treatment in India, read this helpful Guide to Medical Treatment in India for Bangladeshis.
  • Visa approval usually takes 3–5 business days, making it faster and more convenient for patients in need of urgent care​.

Step 3: Travel and Accommodation Arrangements

  • Once the visa is approved, Bangla Health Connect assists with booking flights and arranging accommodations near the hospital. They offer support with airport pick-ups, local transportation, and hotel bookings, ensuring the patient and their family are comfortable throughout their stay​.
  • Some hospitals also provide accommodation options within their premises or nearby guest houses for international patients​.

Step 4: Arriving in India and Beginning Treatment

  • Hospitals like Apollo offer comprehensive care, from the first consultation to surgery or medical procedures, followed by post-treatment recovery​.

Patients also receive detailed post-operative care plans, and in some cases, follow-up consultations can be done remotely once they return home.

অসাধারণ সার্ভিস এই ইনফরমেশন সেন্টারের,বিশেষত তাদের ব্যাবহার অনেক সুন্দর। যারা অসুস্থ থাকেন তারা সর্বদা দুশ্চিন্তায় থাকেন। সে সময় যদি কেউ হাসি মুখে পাশে থাকেন তার থেকে আনন্দের বোধকরি কিছু হয় না। apollo information centre তেমনই একটি প্রতিষ্ঠান। তাছাড়া অনলাইনে ডাক্তরদের সাথে রোগী দেখানোর সময় তারা যে ভাবে সাহায্য করেন, নিজেরা প্যানেলে থেকে ভাষাগত ভাবে হেল্প করেন, বাস্তবিক সেটা প্রশংসার দাবিদার। বিশেষত ইসরাত জাহান আপু টেলিমেডিসিন পরিসেবা গ্রহণের সময় যে ভাবে হেল্প করেন,রোগীর প্রতিটি কথা ইংরেজিতে অনুবাদ করে ডাক্তারকে বলেন,আবার ডাক্তার সাহেবের কথা বাংলায় বুঝিয়ে দেন।সেটা এক কথায় অসাধারণ।তারপর, দ্রুত রোগীদের কাছে প্রেসকিপশন পাঠানোর ব্যাবস্থা করেন।এগুলা সম্পূর্ণ আন্তরিকতার পরিচয় বহন করে। আমি এই প্রতিষ্ঠানের সমৃদ্ধি কামনা করি।
