Which is the best country for medical tourism and why? How does one arrange such!


Question: Which is the best country for medical tourism and why? How does one arrange such travel?
Me and my wife are both in our silver years but we are very active, heath conscience people and we absolutely love the outdoors. We are both looking to experience this new "health vacation" that we have been hearing about. We are both in need of routine check-ups and I would also like to get some quotes on a hip replacement that I have been putting off for a while. I was wondering if anyone had any insight as to the best country to experience these things and the price differences. Thank you.

Allright.... fun.....

1) Banff National Park= somewhere around there maybe ven Jasper is the sulfur water which you can bathe in and it helps bones n stuff. It is expensive to stay in hotels/beds n breakfasts around there. Minimum of 50 - 60 bucks per night.

2) In Europe they have that water in certain places although it might be a bit diff quality. Like in many european countrues tere are health spas which offer hotels that are linked with the spa or you cna rent out a private place at someones house who do that in thos etouristy cities and they offer gymnastics, sulfur water, swimmingor jacuzzi, other stuff as well a su cna decide to order mails from the hotel u r staying at or even if u r not staying at the hotel associated with the fitness health thing u can still order a meal plan from it. or buy your own form the store and make it in your room and eat it in your room or outside and/or go to a restaurant-overpriced for the small amount of food.

Have fun n stay fit! :)



Hi;

I would suggest you India. With world class facilities, healthcare infrastructure and skilled doctors it would be easy for you to get the best quality healthcare facilities at a better cost as compared to the west. Also you can go for Ayurvedic and yoga related therapies in India for vitality and rejuvenation for your age. Total Hip replacement for one side would cost you anything from usd 4000-7000 depending upon your case. For more information you may send me an email at: sudhir.rathore@fortishealthcare.com or visit www.fortishealthcare.com

Take care.

If you are from the US and are on medicare (I interpret "silver years" to be those 65+; 'scuse me if I'm wrong), why do you see the need to go abroad for a checkup or a hip replacement when you could get both right here at home?



In my humble opinion COSTA RICA!

I have relocated my VIP service company down here from Las Vegas to facilitate the medical tourists. I chose Costa Rica due to the proximity, the friendly locals, the beautiful weather, the beaches, the jungles, and the plethora of activities for one do to in this natural wonderland.

Medical tourism is not something one does on a whim. There are a lot of factors to consider. Including the doctor and hospital (are they experienced and internationally accredited), the post op care (you do not want to be just a number in a hospital room), what to do before or after your treatment (not only is it important to your health and your wallet, it's a vacation, one should enjoy it).

At Costa Rica Medical Tours, we take into consideration all of those things and more to help you make a clear and heathy choice that you would be very pleased with. We can accommodate all of your needs and help you resolve any doubts or concerns you might have if you choose Costa Rica for your destination. We are at your SERVICE. If you would like to see our services please visit our site we would be more than happy to assist you. www.CostaRicaMedicalTours.com
