What is medical tourism? Medical tourism, also known as Health tourism, is an opportunity to travel abroad for medical treatment and to utilize local tourism opportunities, if desired. We facilitate the process for patients from western countries to go overseas seeking affordable world-class medical care. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Is it affordable ? The following examples demonstrate how affordable the procedures can be even if you factor in airfare for two, accommodation, and travel expenses.

Can I expect high quality care ? Substantial savings in healthcare costs does not mean it occurs at the expense of quality care. Most medical facilities we associate with offer cutting-edge technology. Many institutes have been JCI (Joint Commission International) certified or are awaiting the certification. Most of the physicians in these facilities are western trained and board certified. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Will there be any risks or complications with the procedures? With any surgery, there are potential risks associated like bleeding, infection, etc. It depends on the individual circumstances. We encourage you to discuss your health status and pre-operative clearance with your PCP prior to your travel. By working with only the top class institutes and physicians, we ensure the level of risks and complications is no greater than you would expect in the US hospitals. We also encourage you to do your own research before making a final decision. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
What about follow up? The host country medical team and T & T representative will ensure that you have recovered enough to travel back home safely. We encourage you to keep your PCP informed of all your healthcare activities abroad. T & T will also follow up on you after your return and through recovery phase. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Is medical tourism for me? Whether you are insured, under-insured or uninsured, the savings are considerable. We are here to provide necessary information and tools for you to make informed decisions. We do not, however, endorse any particular physician or health care facility. We offer choices and facilitate a smooth health care journey. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
