Hi there,

It depends on the policy and cost procedure of hospital that how much they are charging for surgery. Surgeon plays no role in charging cost of surgery.  If, hospital is calling a guest surgeon on request of family then that surgeon may charge high price .

Cost of basic surgery in India is 2,25,000 and it can go up to 5 lakh . But cost of surgery also depends on type of surgery. So it can not be said that a surgeon can charge 15 lakh or not . You must contact hospital for these details.

Hope it helps you

Good luck!

Hi Ishaan,

Cost of surgery depends on what type of surgery is required in order to treat the patient. The fees depends upon the requirement in the procedure. See, the cost is decided as per the standards and the surgeons. Many high skilled surgeons charge higher amount in order to treat the patients.

Charging a huge amount of 15 lakh is no doubt not very affordable but it is important for the procedures. So, in context of your query yes a surgeon can charge 15 lakh rupees for a surgery.
