World-class urological surgery in Gurgaon — 30 minutes from Delhi airport.

Yes - and this is strongly recommended. Most international patients begin with a WhatsApp consultation: send your reports, scans (CT/MRI/ultrasound), biopsy results and prior consultation notes to +91 78382 86336. Dr. Nitin will review everything and provide a clear opinion on diagnosis, whether surgery is needed, which procedure is most appropriate, and what outcomes to expect. Only then do you need to book flights and plan your trip. This avoids unnecessary travel and ensures your visit is purposeful.

Apollo Hospital Gurugram (Sector 26, Palam Vihar Extension) is approximately 25–35 minutes from Indira Gandhi International Airport (Terminal 3) by taxi or cab - roughly 18 km via NH-48. The hospital has a dedicated international patient services team and can assist with airport transfers on request. Multiple hotel and serviced apartment options are available within 5–10 minutes of the hospital for patients who need to stay nearby during treatment or recovery.

Robotic urological surgery in India typically costs 60–80% less than equivalent private procedures in the UK, United States, or UAE, without any compromise in surgical technology or standards. Apollo Hospital Gurugram uses the same da Vinci robotic surgical system used in leading NHS, US, and Gulf hospitals. The cost difference alone - even accounting for flights and accommodation - makes India a compelling option for patients who face long NHS waiting times or very high private surgery costs abroad. Exact costs depend on procedure and complexity; contact us for a personalised estimate.

Send everything in as much detail as possible via WhatsApp: all imaging (CT, MRI, PET, ultrasound) in DICOM format on a CD or USB drive is ideal - DICOM images allow Dr. Nitin to review the actual scan rather than just the printed report; histopathology and biopsy reports; blood test results (PSA, creatinine, full blood count, tumour markers); all prior consultation letters and operation notes; a list of current medications. The more information provided in advance, the more specific and useful the pre-visit opinion will be.

Most robotic urological procedures at Apollo Gurugram involve a hospital stay of 2–4 days (longer for radical cystectomy). After discharge, patients are usually advised to remain within a reasonable distance of the hospital for 5–7 additional days before long-haul travel is safe. Total travel time for most procedures is therefore 10–14 days. Day-case or short-stay procedures (certain stone surgeries, diagnostic cystoscopy) may require only 3–5 days in total. Dr. Nitin will give you a specific recovery timeline based on your planned procedure.

Yes. A full consultation letter and post-operative report can be provided for your treating physicians at home. This includes diagnosis, operative findings, histopathology results, discharge medications, follow-up instructions, and Dr. Nitin's contact details for any clinical questions during your recovery. Video follow-up consultations via WhatsApp or call can also be arranged to monitor your recovery after you return home.

Dr. Nitin sees patients from across the world. The largest groups of international patients currently come from the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Bangladesh. Patients with South Asian heritage living abroad frequently return to India for urological care - particularly for complex cancer surgery, robotic procedures, male infertility treatment, and surgical second opinions.
