The facilities provided in the city ensure quailty health services and safe standards. There are however, cases reported of the tourists who suffered from minor ailments. As a precautionary measure it is would be wise to use the safe drinking water instead of tap water. The diseases if they somehow happen to struck are usually water borne.

Health awareness among the local masses is quite high. At Chennai it is not surprising to find gymnasiums and health resorts even in small localities. Have an early morning walk in one of the local parks or beach promenade and you will find all sorts of people. The only bad thing about the place is the excessive humidity and temperature.
