Medical treatment in Nagpur
Nagpur’s case for international patients rests on things you can verify: the only JCI-accredited hospital in Central India, government transplant programmes with published volumes, a state medical-value-travel policy that names the city as a hub it wants to develop, and nonstop flights from the Gulf. This guide describes the hospitals, the routes, honest cost ranges and the practicalities.
We are hospital-neutral. Medtu Care has no commercial affiliation with the hospitals listed here unless expressly stated, and we take no commissions from any hospital. Which hospital fits your case is decided privately — by the specialists and infrastructure your condition needs — not by any list on this page.
Which hospitals treat international patients in Nagpur?
The private bench includes Max Super Speciality Hospital (Mankapur), KIMS-Kingsway (Kasturchand Park), Wockhardt Hospitals (Shankar Nagar), Orange City Hospital & Research Institute, KRIMS Hospitals (Ramdaspeth), the Rashtra Sant Tukdoji Regional Cancer Hospital and the NKP Salve Institute’s Lata Mangeshkar Hospital (Hingna) — with AIIMS Nagpur at MIHAN as the government anchor for judging the city’s clinical depth.
Max Super Speciality Hospital
Mankapur, Nagpur
A multi-specialty hospital acquired by the Max Healthcare group in 2024 (previously Alexis), and described by the group as JCI-accredited — the only hospital in Central India holding that accreditation. Cardiac sciences, oncology, neurosciences and urology-nephrology among its specialties, with liver and kidney transplant programmes.
KIMS-Kingsway Hospitals
Kasturchand Park, Nagpur
A large multi-specialty hospital in the KIMS group (majority stake since 2022), expanded with an additional 200-bed block in 2024, with cardiac sciences, neurosciences, oncology, nephrology and transplant-surgery facilities; NABH and NABL certifications are listed by third-party directories.
Wockhardt Hospitals
Shankar Nagar, Nagpur
A multi-specialty hospital in the Wockhardt group with a dedicated international-patient programme — visa assistance, airport transfers and published international testimonials — covering cardiology, neurosurgery, orthopaedics and oncology, alongside a separate cancer institute in the city.
Orange City Hospital & Research Institute (OCHRI)
Central Nagpur, Nagpur
A long-running private multi-specialty hospital with a cardiac surgery unit, trauma services and orthopaedics among its departments.
KRIMS Hospitals
Ramdaspeth, Nagpur
A multi-specialty hospital with a dedicated lung-specialty wing, joint replacement, bariatric surgery and ENT/head-neck oncology, listed as NABH-accredited by third-party directories.
Rashtra Sant Tukdoji Regional Cancer Hospital
Manewada Road, Nagpur
A charitable regional cancer hospital with radiotherapy and comprehensive cancer services, with a share of beds reserved for below-poverty-line patients.
NKP Salve Institute / Lata Mangeshkar Hospital
Hingna, Nagpur
A large private teaching hospital with super-specialty programmes; its NABH accreditation certificate is published on the institute’s own site.
AIIMS Nagpur (government anchor)
The 940-bed AIIMS campus at MIHAN is the city’s government anchor: its transplant unit reported 52 kidney, 10 bone-marrow and 29 corneal transplants by December 2025 in press coverage, and the adjacent government medical college completed 500 robotic surgeries in 2026 — the first government hospital in India to do so. Government hospitals are not typical international-patient venues, but they matter when judging a city’s clinical depth.
Descriptions here are general and for reference only; departments, programmes and accreditations change over time. Confirm current details with the hospital directly. Medtu Care is a facilitator: we coordinate consultations, quotes and logistics, and all medical decisions rest with you and your treating doctors.
Why do international patients consider Nagpur?
The verifiable records: Max Nagpur’s JCI accreditation (October 2025, per the group); AIIMS Nagpur’s published transplant volumes; and Maharashtra’s medical-value-travel policy — a ₹365-crore programme reported in 2026 — which has publicly named Nagpur as a medical and wellness hub it intends to develop. A ₹600-crore CARE Hospitals project was announced for the city in 2026, adding capacity on top of KIMS-Kingsway’s 2024 expansion.
The honest counterweight: Nagpur’s domestic flight network thinned in 2026 (Air India suspended its Delhi and Mumbai services), and the Doha route is paused in current winter filings — connectivity is real but moves often, which is why every routing is confirmed at enquiry rather than promised on a page.
How do you reach Nagpur from abroad?
Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport links Nagpur to the Gulf directly; most other origins connect through Mumbai or Delhi — often on a single ticket.

Origins that book on one ticket
| Pairing | Single-PNR routing |
|---|---|

| London → Nagpur | One ticket via the British Airways–IndiGo or Virgin Atlantic–IndiGo codeshare through Mumbai or Delhi |

What about the visa?
Planned treatment needs an Indian medical visa — the e-Medical visa for eligible nationalities, the embassy route for others — with the hospital invitation letter as the keystone document. OCI cardholders need no visa; Nepali citizens enter with standard ID.
How much does treatment cost in Nagpur?
Published aggregator ranges put joint replacement in Nagpur between roughly ₹1,80,000 and ₹4,50,000 and heart bypass between roughly ₹3,25,000 and ₹5,25,000 — hospital prices that vary with implant choice, room category and your clinical details. The Nagpur treatment-cost page carries the sourced ranges and what changes them; the number that matters for your case is an itemized quote, agreed in writing before you travel. Our own fees are separate from every hospital bill and published on the fees page.
Recovering in Nagpur — and the safari gateway
Attendant accommodation clusters around Kasturchand Park and Ramdaspeth with budget rooms from a few hundred rupees a night. For families combining a journey with game viewing, Pench tiger reserve sits about two hours from the city, with Kanha and Tadoba reachable by longer road transfers — park permits are seasonal and book out, so our travel arm Tripcuro plans them around your recovery window, and sightseeing always waits for your doctor’s clearance first.
