Travelling to Ludhiana

A simple path for outstation patients.

Delhi to Ludhiana: 5-6 hours by road (NH-44), 5-6 hours by Shatabdi Express, or 1 hour to Chandigarh by flight plus 1.5 hours by road. Most patients complete consultation, surgery, and discharge in a single 2-3 day trip. Our Civil Lines location is central and easily approachable, with hotels nearby for accompanying family.

Free teleconsultation first

Send your scans, previous records, or symptom description on WhatsApp. We respond within 24 hours with a preliminary plan and quote — before you travel.

Getting here & staying over

Bawa Hospital is centrally located in Civil Lines and easily approachable from Ludhiana Railway Station, the Inter-State Bus Terminal, and all major roads. A range of hotels and guest houses sit within a short distance for accompanying family.

One trip, two days

For most cases, the entire process — consultation, pre-op tests, surgery, discharge — can be completed in 2–3 days. We co-ordinate everything so you only travel once.

Insurance reimbursement assistance

Cashless tie-ups with ECHS, CGHS, Star Health and other major insurers are in progress and are not yet live. In the meantime, we help you file reimbursement claims end-to-end — pre-authorisation, paperwork, and post-discharge submission handled in-house.

Medical EMI through GMoney — 3, 6, 9, and 12-month plans. Quick paper-light approval at admission. Bring Aadhaar, PAN, and a salary slip or bank statement.

Written, itemised quote

Every patient gets a written quote before surgery. No verbal promises. No surprise add-ons. What you sign is what you pay.

Common Questions

Questions outstation patients often ask.

Why travel from Delhi to Ludhiana for hernia surgery?

Three reasons. First, specialty focus — The Hernia Institute is a single-specialty centre dedicated entirely to hernia and abdominal wall reconstruction. Second, surgeon credentials — Dr. Bawa is an AHS Gimbernat Award recipient (2022) and ACS International Scholar — a combination of international recognition rarely found in any Indian city. Third, transparency — every quote is itemised and given to you in writing before surgery, with no last-minute additions at discharge.

Who is the best hernia surgeon in Ludhiana?

For inguinal, ventral, recurrent, and complex hernia surgery: Dr. Ashvind Bawa, MS, FACS — AHS Gimbernat Award recipient, ACS International Scholar, and former Professor & Unit Head of Surgery at DMC&H. For paediatric hernia: Dr. Vinayak S Rengan, MCh (Paediatric Surgery). Dr. Ankit Mishra (MRCS, FRCS, FAHS) is our Co-Surgical Lead. All three sub-specialise in hernia work.

What is the cost of hernia surgery in Ludhiana?

At The Hernia Institute, all-inclusive packages start at ₹35,000 for open inguinal hernia repair. Laparoscopic repair starts at ₹55,000. Bilateral and complex cases are higher. Use our cost estimator for an instant range, or send your records on WhatsApp for a written quote within 24 hours.

Will you help with my health insurance claim?

Cashless tie-ups with ECHS, CGHS, Star Health and other major insurers are in progress and are not yet live at the moment. We do, however, handle insurance reimbursement claims end-to-end — pre-authorisation, paperwork and post-discharge submission are all done in-house at no additional cost. You pay at the time of treatment and your insurer reimburses you per your policy.

Is laparoscopic hernia surgery available in Ludhiana?

Yes. The Hernia Institute offers the full range of modern laparoscopic hernia techniques — TEP, TAPP, eTEP, IPOM-Plus, and laparoscopic TAR. We have a modern operating theatre with 4K laparoscopy and premium energy platforms.

How long does it take from consultation to surgery in Ludhiana?

For most primary inguinal hernias, 7–14 days from first consultation. For complex ventral or recurrent cases, 2–4 weeks to allow for imaging and pre-operative optimisation. Emergencies are seen the same day.

Can I get teleconsultation if I'm outside Ludhiana?

Yes — free teleconsultation for outstation patients before any travel. We review your records, give you a preliminary plan and quote, and answer all your questions before you commit to coming to Ludhiana. WhatsApp +91-9155100001 to schedule.
