Kenya is one of India's largest sources of medical tourists from East Africa. Kidney transplant accounts for a significant portion of travel, driven by the cost and quality gap.

Kidney Transplant Cost in India for Kenyan Patients

Kidney transplant in India costs $8,400 to $18,000 (approximately KES 1,100,000 to KES 2,400,000). Private treatment in Nairobi or Mombasa for the same procedure is limited in availability and comparable or higher in cost. Treatment in South Africa, UK, or UAE costs $50,000 to $150,000. India offers world-class outcomes at a fraction of the cost.
