India as a destination for medical tourism is booming, due to the capabilities of its healthcare providers in quality, affordability, and on-time accessibility to treatment and care. Doctors from India are particularly known for their expertise and most of them have been trained at global prestigious institutions, and they use advanced medical technologies to provide quality care. One of the main attractions for medical tourists is the possibility of cutting down 50-70% on the cost of treatments, which are higher in developed countries but do not compromise on their quality. Apart from this, India has specialized medical centers that have the ability to treat complicated cases related to cancer, cardiac problems, orthopedics, and organ transplantation. Also, the waiting time for consultation is highly minimal in India, so patients can be attended to a specialist within days or, if needed, the same day. Communication issues are almost nil because most Indian doctors speak fluent English to facilitate easy comprehension by international patients of their treatment plan.

Indian doctors were always close to their patients, they took time to consider each patient's unique medical history and preferences for customized care. This fusion of affordability with quality, accessibility, and personal attention makes India the preferred destination for medical tourism. Colorectal cancer is increasingly becoming prominent in India, and developments of colorectal surgery with minimum invasive and robot techniques are raising the standards here. However, considering the increasing incidence of colorectal cancer in India, especially in younger population, we should consider whether it has become necessary to train doctors in such complex procedures from the beginning of their careers. As India advances in healthcare, it must prioritize early training in complex specialties like colorectal surgery to make sure that there is top-quality care for all.
