Medical Tourism for Nigerian Patients: Verified Hospitals, Transparent Costs, Real Results
Over 40,000 Nigerians travel abroad for medical care each year. We connect you with JCI-accredited hospitals in India, Turkey, and Thailand — with verified credentials, all-inclusive pricing, and a dedicated case manager from start to finish.
Why Nigerian Patients Choose Treatment Abroad
Verified, Accredited Hospitals
Every hospital in our network holds JCI or NABH accreditation — the same standards as the best hospitals in the US and Europe. We verify every doctor's credentials, publish success rates, and share real patient testimonials.
Transparent, All-Inclusive Pricing
No hidden costs, no surprise fees. You receive a detailed cost estimate covering surgery, hospital stay, medications, tests, airport transfers, and accommodation before you commit. What we quote is what you pay.
Affordable World-Class Care
Heart surgery in India costs ₦4-8 million vs ₦15-25 million at top Nigerian private hospitals. Cancer treatment, transplants, and orthopedic procedures are 50-70% more affordable abroad — with better facilities and outcomes.
Dedicated Case Manager
From your first inquiry through treatment and follow-up, a dedicated case manager handles everything: medical records review, doctor opinions, visa support, flights, accommodation, and hospital coordination.

Patient Success Stories
“After being quoted $45,000 for knee replacement in the US, I found Travel4Treatment. They connected me with a top orthopedic hospital in India where I had surgery for $7,500. Six months later, I'm back to hiking with no pain. The hospital was world-class and doctor was US-trained.”

“I researched cosmetic surgery for years but couldn't justify the $18,000 price tag. Travel4Treatment arranged my care at Malo Clinic in Portugal for less than $9,000. The quality was exceptional, and I extended my stay to enjoy Lisbon. Best decision I ever made!”
