"India is home to many cities and areas that provide a wide selection of medical specialists. The country has a large and highly established network of health care providers, making it easy to access quality care in cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Chennai. Additionally, many of the smaller towns in India, such as Patna, Lucknow, Jaipur, and Pune, offer specialized medical care as well. The best cities to visit for specialist care are often those with the most established hospitals, such as the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Delhi and the Tata Memorial Hospital in Mumbai," remarked another expat in India.
