India is a big success story in the field of medical tourism. A huge shout-out should be given to the immensely skilled and ethically coherent doctors for this. Indian doctors are famous throughout the world for their efficiency and proficiency. Not only that, much of the good name garnered by the hospitals of the developed West comes on the back of doctors and other medical staff of Indian origin.
This has been corroborated by Bscholarly, an online resource center for students. An article uploaded on bscholarly.com lists the countries with the best doctors in the world. India is placed second on the list, behind only the USA. As a matter of fact, India is the only third-world country in the top ten. The list is as follows
USA
India
United Kingdom
Germany
France
Switzerland
Canada
Italy
Australia
Austria
“India is one of the countries at the forefront in the medical sector. When compared with other developed nations, India has the best doctors both locally and internationally. Statistics show that a majority of the doctors in countries like the United States, Australia, Canada, etc, are Indians. This has been corroborated by Dr. Anupama Gotimukula, president of the American Association of Physicians of Indian origin,” the article reads.
“In less developed countries and developing African countries, very difficult medical operations or activities are taken to professionals in India. The reason is actually because, India is deemed to have, not just the best doctors but also the best medical facilities for any medical treatment. Indian doctors are also more exposed to a lot of cases than their Western counterparts. Apparently, students over there go through more rigorous training than other countries.”
And this is before considering the revolution happening in the AYUSH sector in the country. With more research and tabulation happening in fields like Ayurveda, India is set to witness huge strides in the medical field, including producing doctors who are versatile in their approach depending on the nature of diseases and the person undergoing treatment.
Nevertheless, this placement comes in recognition of the influence and standing of India’s medical sector globally. Medical tourism in India is set for significant growth in the coming decade owing to such doctors. Soon, the country would emerge as the leader in new-age healthcare, aligning with the vision of becoming the Viswaguru of the modern world.
