Cost of heart surgery in India
The cost depends on the procedure, diagnosis, hospital stay and your medical reports — but it is typically far lower than private cardiac care in Yemen. VNR provides a personalised, all-inclusive estimate from DDMM, and can explain it in rial (YER) on request.
Final cost depends on your medical reports, confirmed diagnosis, hospital stay, implants and doctor review. Estimates are not a quotation. See our full cost guide.
Travel planning from Yemen to India
Patients from Sana'a and across Yemen typically travel via Aden (ADE), with direct and one-stop flights from the Gulf to major Indian cities, connecting to Ahmedabad.
