Mrs. Kayleigh Chemmy, of Birmingham, said: \"I was in a lot of pain. My face had sunken in at the sides because I didn\'t have my back teeth and I became obsessed with it. \"I was a shop assistant but I had to give up my job because I didn\'t want to go out, I didn\'t want anyone to see me.I couldn\'t face having false teeth at my age, I just broke down and cried.I felt let down by the NHS because it\'s a hereditary condition - it\'s not my fault my teeth are like this and I pay my tax and national insurance like everyone else. I could never afford implants here. I don\'t know why it is so expensive here. I came across the Indian Health Guru website while trawling the internet. I rang them and they put me in touch with past clients, so I knew it was genuine. After seeing my x-rays they offered me various treatment options. I went over in July and January for the stages of my treatment.I can\'t speak highly enough of the clinic or India Health Guru Consultants. They were very professional, there was no language barrier, and it was so clean. They helped organise my flights, picked us up from the airport, and we stayed in a four star hotel at a discounted price."
Medical or Health tourism has become a common form of vacationing, and covers a broad spectrum of medical services. It mixes leisure, fun and relaxation together with wellness and healthcare. A combination of many factors has lead to the recent increase in popularity of medical tourism. Exorbitant cost of healthcare and medical facilities in advanced countries, ease and affordability of international travel, favorable currency exchange rates in the global economy, rapidly improving technology and high standards of medical care in the developing countries has all contributed their share to this rapid development of medical tourisms more and more patients from Europe, the USA and other affluent nations with high medical costs look for effective options. Not just cost savings or the high standard of medical care facility, but also the waiting time is much lower for any treatment in India than in any other country. Medical help is often an emergency and situations can turn worse if the treatment is delayed. While you might have to wait for several months to get a surgical operation done in the UK, in India things can be arranged within a week.
