International Hospitals for Medical Tourism

Medical tourism is the practice of traveling internationally to access medical treatment — often combining high-quality healthcare with significant cost savings, shorter wait times and access to specialists not readily available at home.

Medical tourism is safe when you choose accredited hospitals and qualified specialists. Look for JCI-accredited facilities, board-certified doctors and clinics with established international patient programs — all hospitals listed in our directory meet rigorous standards.

Most patients save 40–80% on procedures compared to private healthcare in the US, UK, Canada and Australia — even after accounting for travel and accommodation costs.

Leading medical tourism destinations include Mexico, Turkey, Thailand, India, Costa Rica and several European countries — each with distinct strengths in different specialties. Use the filter above to explore options.

Common medical tourism treatments include cosmetic and plastic surgery, dental work, weight loss surgery, orthopedic procedures, fertility treatments, cardiac surgery, eye surgery and oncology.

Look for international accreditation, the specialist's specific experience with your procedure, transparent pricing, verified patient reviews, modern facilities and a dedicated international patient department.

Top medical tourism hospitals provide structured aftercare with in-person follow-ups during your stay, remote consultations after you return home and coordination with local doctors in your country.

Yes — medical tourism insurance protects you against complications, trip interruption and other unforeseen issues. Some clinics offer dedicated medical tourism coverage in addition to standard travel insurance.

Start by selecting a hospital and requesting a consultation. The clinic's international patient team will guide you through medical evaluation, scheduling, travel arrangements, accommodation and recovery planning.

Reputable medical tourism hospitals provide remote follow-up support and often coordinate with local providers in your country if complications arise. Discuss the post-discharge plan and emergency support options before booking.
