Affordable & Advanced Medical Treatments in India for Tanzanian Patients in Dar es Salaam, Mwanza, Arusha, Dodoma & Beyond

Why Tanzanian Patients Are Turning to India for Life‑Saving Care
Access to advanced healthcare in Tanzania—from Dar es Salaam to Mwanza, Arusha, Dodoma, Mbeya, and Zanzibar—faces hurdles: long wait times, a shortage of specialist services, and rising costs. With national health insurance covering just 32% of the population¹, many Tanzanians confronting complex illnesses must seek better options abroad.
Recent statistics show more than 3,000 Tanzanians traveled to India in 2019 for treatment, with 90% reporting high satisfaction². Cardiac procedures were the top choice—80% of Tanzanian patients needing heart surgery went to India².

In Tanzania, ~11,000 babies are born each year with sickle cell disease, and most receive no curative treatment³⁴. India offers state-of-the-art transplants with much higher survival rates.
With nearly 35,000 annual cancer diagnoses and high mortality due to late detection⁵, Indian oncology hospitals offer timely and advanced care through chemotherapy, radiation, and robotic surgeries.
Cardiac interventions are among the most demanded by Tanzanian outbound medical travelers².
While transplant services exist locally at limited scale, India provides more efficient and expert-driven transplant care.
Advanced spine, joint, and robotic orthopedic solutions draw many Tanzanian patients each year.
For conditions such as brain tumors or complex spine disorders, Indian hospitals offer precision treatment by super-specialist neurosurgeons.
Indian IVF centers offer high success rates with ethical and affordable care—making them a top choice for couples from East Africa.
