Getting from Dharan to KCC

By air

Buddha Air, Yeti Airlines, Shree Airlines to Biratnagar, flight time 35–45 minutes to Biratnagar Airport (BIR). Biratnagar Airport is a further ~40-minute drive (~40 km) from Dharan. On arrival in Kathmandu, our free Ring Road pickup service can bring you directly to the Tathali, Bhaktapur Hospital - WhatsApp your travel details the day before.

By road

Direct road journey of roughly 10–12 hours (~430–440 km). Buses arriving at Kalanki or Gongabu are also within our Ring Road pickup zone.

For patients requiring specialized care outside the region, taking a short taxi ride to Biratnagar Airport followed by a direct flight to Kathmandu is the most comfortable route.

We can arrange pick-up and drop from airport which is just 15km from hospital. Call or whatsapp us beforehand for this service.

Why patients from Dharan choose KCC over travelling to India

What happens when you arrive

  1. Send your reports first. WhatsApp your biopsy, CT scans, MRI , or existing treatment records before you travel - our team reviews them, usually the same day, so your visit is planned before you leave Dharan.
  2. Meet your specialist doctor. In person at Tathali or our New Baneshwor city clinic.
  3. Start treatment. Surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy are all coordinated on one campus.

Radiotherapy courses typically run daily over 3–5 weeks, so most out-of-town patients plan to stay in Kathmandu for the duration. See our travelling patient guide for accommodation near both campuses.

Common Questions from Dharan Patients

Do I need to travel to Kathmandu more than once?

For surgery or a single consultation, often just one visit. For radiotherapy, given daily over several weeks, most patients stay in Kathmandu for the full course rather than travelling back and forth.

Can I get a second opinion before deciding to travel?

Yes -send your existing reports via WhatsApp for a free second opinion before committing to the trip.

Your question is not too small - and it's not too late to start
