Why Ghanaian patients consider India for cardiac surgery
India has established cardiac surgery centres with experience across a broad range of procedures — from coronary bypass surgery and valve repair or replacement to complex congenital heart disease and interventional cardiology. Ghanaian patients who consider cardiac surgery in India typically do so when seeking specialist access, a second cardiological opinion, or a specific surgical approach not readily available locally.
Flights from Accra (ACC) connect to major Indian cities including Delhi, Mumbai, and Chennai, where cardiac surgery centres with international patient departments are located.
Types of cardiac surgery and cardiology care in India
The appropriate procedure depends on the specific cardiac diagnosis and is determined by a cardiologist and cardiac surgeon after reviewing each patient's case.
- Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) — on-pump and off-pump (beating heart) techniques
- Valve repair and replacement — mitral, aortic, tricuspid; tissue and mechanical options
- Interventional cardiology — angioplasty, stenting, TAVR (transcatheter aortic valve replacement)
- Congenital heart disease surgery — paediatric and adult congenital programmes
- Arrhythmia procedures — ablation, pacemaker and ICD implantation
- Heart failure management — assessment, device therapy, and surgical options
How the process works
A specialist cardiology review happens before any travel decision.
- Share reports — ECG, echocardiogram, coronary angiogram (if available), prior treatment records
- Cardiology and cardiac surgery review — the appropriate specialist team reviews the case
- Hospital and team matching — Livance matches the diagnosis to the right centre and surgeon
- Medical visa — Ghanaian passport holders apply through the Indian High Commission in Accra; Livance provides the invitation letter
- Surgery, recovery, and follow-up — on-ground coordination throughout
Medical visa for Ghanaian patients
Ghanaian passport holders apply for an Indian Medical Visa through the Indian High Commission in Accra. An e-Medical Visa is also available online.
Documents typically required: valid passport, hospital invitation letter, cardiac investigation reports, proof of funds, travel insurance. Up to two attendants may apply for Medical Attendant Visas.
