Choose your region below. The process is similar everywhere, but travel, language and food arrangements differ.
Rest of the World
Patients from Africa, Europe, the UK, North America, Southeast Asia and other regions consult Dr. Wadhera for bariatric, gallbladder, hernia and other laparoscopic surgery in New Delhi. Most of the planning happens online before you travel, so you only fly once your surgical plan is clear.
How it works
- Send your reports. Share your height, weight, recent blood tests, scans and medicine list on WhatsApp at +91-7011165994.
- Video consultation. Dr. Wadhera reviews your reports and speaks with you online. Tell us your time zone so the call can be scheduled at a workable hour.
- Treatment plan. You receive a written plan: the suggested procedure, hospital, expected stay and cost estimate. The procedure is decided only after your reports are reviewed.
- Travel documents. Most international patients travel on an Indian medical visa. The clinic can provide documentation to support your application. Visa decisions rest with the Indian authorities.
- Surgery and stay in Delhi. Pre-surgery checks, surgery and hospital stay at one of the hospitals where Dr. Wadhera operates, followed by a recovery period in Delhi before you fly home.
- Follow-up after you return. Video, phone or WhatsApp follow-up, with a discharge summary and medication plan to share with your local doctor.
What we usually treat
What to send for a first review
- Height, weight and a short history of previous weight-loss attempts (for bariatric patients)
- Blood tests, ultrasound, endoscopy or other scans from the last 6 months, if you have them
- List of current medicines and any previous surgeries
- Your country, preferred travel dates and whether someone will accompany you
Healthy planning tip: bariatric surgery needs follow-up for months afterwards. Ask your local doctor or dietitian whether they can support your vitamin and diet plan once you are back home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to visit Delhi before I can get a treatment plan?
No. You can send your reports and have a video consultation first. Dr. Wadhera will tell you whether surgery is suitable and which procedure is likely to fit before you plan travel. The final decision is confirmed after in-person assessment in Delhi.
How long will I need to stay in Delhi?
It depends on the procedure. After bariatric surgery most patients stay in hospital for 2-3 days, and Dr. Wadhera advises on how long to remain in Delhi for recovery and early follow-up before you fly home. You will get a clearer timeline in your treatment plan.
Can a family member travel with me?
Yes. Accommodation for the patient and one accompanying person can be coordinated on request; costs are explained in advance.
