Which Country Is the Best for general surgery?
While general surgery abroad is often more affordable than in the United States, choosing the right country is key. Here are five top destinations for your general surgery needs.
Mexico
For those living in the United States, traveling to Mexico isn’t expensive. This makes it a popular choice for many Americans.
In addition to cheap ticket prices, the cost of living in Mexico is significantly less than in the US.[1] Meaning you’ll only pay a fraction of what you’d pay at home.
The low cost of living makes your overall trip more affordable. If you feel like spoiling yourself with great shopping in Mexico, you won’t have to break the bank.
With breathtaking beaches and fantastic food, you can take a few weeks off and enjoy everything Mexico has to offer.
India
India is another country with a low cost of living and highly trained surgeons.
Traveling to India from the United States or Canada can be a bit more expensive since it’s on the other side of the world. However, it is an excellent choice for Australians looking for surgery abroad.
Once you’re there, you’ll notice how professional the surgeons are. Many of them are trained in the United States. So, you can rest assured knowing that your surgeon is well trained and you’re in good hands.
India is also an affordable place to live. Since living costs are so low, your accommodation, traveling, and hospital bills will be far cheaper than if you did your Dentistry
in the United States.
Spain
Spain is one of the most affordable places to visit in Western Europe. With amazing beaches, culture, and museums, you can take some well-deserved time off after your surgery.
Many of Spain’s surgeons are trained at world-renowned universities like the University of Barcelona and Valencia.
Most of Spain’s hospitals have English-speaking staff. If you’re from the United States or Canada, then this is invaluable. The medical providers speak fluent English, so you jump the language barrier and avoid misunderstandings.
Turkey
Known to most as the bridge between the West and the East, Turkey provides affordable yet advanced healthcare for citizens and visitors.
Although Turkey is one of the more expensive options on this list, its facilities and surgeons are state-of-the-art.
Many Turkish doctors are trained in the United States or Canada. They can speak English well and will ensure you have the best possible experience.
Costa Rica
Like Mexico, Costa Rica shouldn’t cost that much to travel to if you’re from the United States or Canada.
They also have a low cost of living. You’ll need to earn around $16,000 per year[4] to live a comfortable life in Costa Rica compared to $84,000 in US cities like Seattle.
It ensures that the cost of your Dentistry is kept to a minimum. Your accommodation, travel expenses, and food will also cost far less than what you’d pay in the United States.
So even if you’re taking out a loan, Costa Rica can be a practical option.

How Do I Apply for general surgery Abroad?
In this guide, we’ll walk you through, step by step, the actions you need to take.
Insurance Check
The first factor you’ll need to consider when applying for general surgery is budget. If you have insurance, check to see if your policy covers the treatment done overseas.
Ask your insurance company the following questions:
- Is my general surgery
abroad eligible for insurance coverage? - Do you cover the total cost or a percentage?
- What is the maximum benefit?
- Will you pay directly to my healthcare provider?
- Which countries do you cover?
If you don’t have insurance, consider setting up a payment plan. Many health facilities are happy to let you pay the total for months or years. Since surgery abroad is far cheaper than within the USA, the monthly costs aren’t as high.
You can also try alternative ways to finance your surgery abroad.
Finding Right Hospital and Surgeons
Next, you’ll need to do thorough research.
You want to spend time looking at different hospitals’ websites that do general surgery.
Look at their surgeons’ experience, testimonials of previous patients, and how much the procedure costs.
Once you’ve looked at several different websites, make a list of possible choices. Contact them via email or video call and find out if they are a good choice for you. This is the perfect opportunity to ask all the questions you want.
We can help you find the right surgeon in the country of your choice. Our short-listed hospitals and surgeons have a successful track record with past patients.
Book Your Medical Trip
Now that you’ve checked to see if your insurance covers your surgery and you have looked for the right hospital and surgeons, it’s time to book your trip.
This is where the fun begins. Now it’s almost like booking a holiday. Ensure your passport is valid and you have all the necessary paperwork like:
- Airline tickets
- Insurance documentation
- Copies of identification documents
- Drivers license
