Frequently Asked Questions
What medical documents do I need to submit?
Patients must provide complete medical history, recent diagnostic reports,
and any previous treatment summaries. This helps our specialists assess
suitability for stem cell therapy.
Why is stem cell therapy cheaper in India than in the US or UK?
Lower costs generally reflect differences in facility overhead, staffing costs, and currency exchange rather than lower safety standards, at properly accredited facilities. Always verify accreditation independently rather than assuming cost reflects quality either way.
How long does the pre-treatment process take?
On average, the pre-treatment review and clearance take 1–2 weeks,
depending on how quickly medical reports and visa documents are submitted.
Do I need to stop current medications?
Patients should not stop or change medications without consulting our doctors.
In most cases, current prescriptions are continued, but adjustments may
be made depending on treatment type.
What questions should I ask before booking stem cell treatment abroad?
Which regulatory framework governs this treatment? Who is the named treating physician and what are their credentials? Is the facility independently accredited? Is any part of the outcome guaranteed? A clinic unwilling to answer these directly is a red flag.
Can family members accompany the patient?
Yes, we encourage family support. Our packages can include
accommodation for caregivers and attendants upon request.
