You have tour agencies, adventure tour agencies, dating tour agencies and now you have medical tour agencies.
As the name suggest, they cater especially for medical tourists going on a vacation inclusive of their choice of medical treatment.
However, there are not many of these agencies around, and it still remains a very specialized field. But check in your local yellow pages, you might just find a listing or two. They could be a stand alone medical tourism agency, or an in-hospital department that caters solely to international patients.But more about what these agencies can help you with.
They provide pre-consultation, a comprehensive range of services and hospitals for patients to make their choices. They also ensure that accompanying family members are taken care of. They will also help you in your travel arrangements, including accommodation booking and visa applications and planning your sight-seeing activities.
Trained staff are there to answer questions, set up appointments and referrals to doctors, as well as arrange for any transportations services. They also help with information about the country including interpretation and airport transfers.
When you do come across a medical tourism agency that you like to try, find out exactly what kind of services are provided by these agencies as they may differ individually.

The term “medical tourism” is actually used in a different way, in my experience. Those in the medical field (including myself) use it to refer to health care professionals journeying overseas for a few weeks of “feel good” work. They are often with an unsustainable program and take a lot more away than what they contribute from where they visit. In arranging my own beginning in International Health, I’m finding it very hard to walk that narrow line.
