Plan your treatment with us, end to end.

Why patients travel to us

Pricing is transparent — the treatment fee is $6,000–$8,000 USD per session (a full Lu-177 PSMA course of 6 sessions runs $36,000–$48,000 USD), and includes local transport between your accommodation and our center. Flights, accommodation, and visa are arranged and paid separately. But cost isn't the only reason patients choose us. They also choose us for:

• Short wait times — we can typically start your first session within 4 weeks of inquiry
• Dedicated focus — we've made Lutetium therapy our practice, not a side service
• International protocols — same evidence, same standards used at leading global centers
• English-fluent team — no language barrier in your medical conversations
• End-to-end coordination — we handle the trip, not just the treatment

Step 1 — Share your records

Get in touch via our contact form, email, or WhatsApp. Send whatever recent records you have:

• Most recent imaging (CT, PET, MRI as relevant) — reports + actual images if possible
• Blood tests within the last 3 months
• Pathology report
• List of prior treatments (with dates and outcomes)
• Current medications
• Any oncology notes from your treating team

Our team reviews your case within 5 working days. We'll tell you honestly whether you appear to be a candidate, whether you need additional tests first, and what a treatment course would look like.

Step 2 — Invitation letter and quote

Once we've confirmed you're a candidate, we issue two documents:

• Treatment plan and quote — total treatment fee, session schedule, expected duration. Fixed pricing; no surprise add-ons. Flights, accommodation, and visa are listed separately so you can plan them yourself.
• Invitation letter — required for your Indian Medical Visa application. Specifies treatment dates, our center, and your role as the patient.

Both documents are provided in English and can be translated for your local visa authority if needed.

Step 3 — The Indian Medical Visa

India offers a specific Medical Visa for international patients seeking treatment:

• Validity: Up to 60 days from first arrival, multiple entries allowed. Extendable within India.
• For longer treatment: Long-term Medical Visa up to 1 year
• Companion visa: Medical Attendant Visa for up to 2 family members
• Processing time: 7–21 days, depending on country
• Where to apply: Indian embassy/high commission in your country, or e-medical visa at indianvisaonline.gov.in
• What you'll need: Our invitation letter, your passport, photos, financial documents, treatment plan

We've guided patients from US, UK, EU, Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and beyond through this process. Our international coordinators can advise on country-specific nuances.

Step 4 — Arriving in India

Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI) is one of Asia's busiest hubs, with direct flights from most major world cities. Your trip will be coordinated with our international patient team before you arrive:

• Airport pickup — by our driver, in a clean, comfortable car, with our coordinator's contact at hand
• Accommodation — we recommend pre-vetted options near our center, ranging from budget-friendly serviced apartments to four-star hotels
• Currency & SIM card — guidance on getting Indian rupees and a working phone number
• First-day briefing — your treatment schedule, what to expect, who to call

Step 5 — Treatment

See the patient journey for full details on what happens during treatment. Briefly:

• Lu-177 PSMA: 6 cycles, 6 weeks apart (~7 months total)
• Lu-177 DOTATATE: 4 cycles, 8 weeks apart (~6 months total)
• Each cycle: Outpatient, same-day discharge for most patients
• Between cycles: You're free to live normally; radiation precautions for the first 3–5 days after each cycle

Stay options during treatment

Option A — One long stay (most international patients)

Travel to India for the full treatment course. Stay 6–8 months. Between cycles, you're free to enjoy the city, travel within India (we'll advise), or focus on rest.

• Lu-177 DOTATATE: ~6.5 months in India (4 cycles + buffer)
• Lu-177 PSMA: ~7.5 months in India (6 cycles + buffer)

This is the most common pattern — fewer flights, more continuity of care, and a chance to explore one of the world's great cities.

Option B — Multiple shorter trips

Some patients prefer to fly home between cycles. Each visit requires about 2 weeks in India (cycle + recovery + clearance for travel). More flights, more disruption, but shorter individual stays.

Option C — Hybrid

Stay for the first 2–3 cycles, return home for a break, then come back for the remainder. We'll work around your life.

Option D — Split with your home center

You can do one or two sessions with us, then continue the rest at a Lutetium therapy center back home. We provide a complete records package — dose history, scan results, protocol notes — so your home team can pick up exactly where we left off. Per-session pricing ($6,000–$8,000 USD) applies whether you do one session or all of them.

Accommodation in India

• Serviced apartments — $600–$1,800 USD per month. Best for long stays. Kitchen, laundry, cleaner.
• Hotels (3–4 star) — $50–$120 USD per night. Best for short trips.
• Hotels (5 star) — $180–$360 USD per night. Premium experience.
• Partner accommodation — some patients prefer our recommended partner properties walking distance from the center.

We don't take commissions from accommodations. Our recommendations reflect patient feedback over years.
