Its a state of the art facility at which is rapidly getting popular with American and European patients looking for advanced Cardiac, Orthopedic and Spinal Surgeries. You are talking about the best quality surgeons here.

For example, Wockhardt Hospital is an associate hospital of Harvard Medical International (HMI), Boston, USA, and is equipped with latest technology, multi-disciplinary capability, world class infrastructure.

In fact, MyOrbit has been involved in a couple of patient cases of Medical/Health Tourism to India, and we can vouch for the overall quality of healthcare and that is being described by these patients.

For someone who has experienced high cost healthcare or long waiting lines, this is a great option.



Nandan Nilekani at India@60 event in NYC

Nandan Nilekani, Co-Chairman of Infosys Technologies has been a core member for the India@60 event in NYC, along with Sunil Mittal of Bharti Enterprises (also the President of CII). Those who know them will see clear marks of their planning and big-thinking behind this $10 million event.

Nandan’s point in the following video – about Human Capital Development- is bang on. While, its true that India has huge numbers of English speaking graduates in various disciplines from Engineering to Medicine, the fact remains that as of today, only 30% of India’s population is engaged in the current growth engine. The remaining 70% population of about 750 million is still not engaged. And majority of them are youth and children. So India is sitting on a treasure mine of human capital, and strong government initiatives can make big differences.
