Ahmedabad has a growing cluster of multi-specialty hospitals in Gujarat. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport connects it to the Gulf and East Africa, where there are large Gujarati communities. For many of those families Ahmedabad offers shared language and food during treatment. It also offers a calmer pace than the larger metros.
