About SurgeryNow
SurgeryNow is a doctor-led surgical referral and care coordination platform that connects international patients with top surgeons and accredited hospitals in India.

Our platform manages the entire medical journey, including:
• Medical evaluation and second opinions
• Hospital and surgeon selection
• Surgical coordination
• Visa, travel, and accommodation support
• Post-operative recovery and follow-up care
Post-operative recovery programs are supported through Dr. Morepen Home’s clinical care network, ensuring continuity of care beyond the hospital stay.
Our mission is to make high-quality surgical care accessible, transparent, and seamless for international patients.
