World Medical Resources, an online directory for international medical travelers.

Announcement
World Medical Resources is a new online directory for international medical travelers. What is medical travel, you ask? Medical travel is the practice of leaving your country of residence and traveling to another country for health care or dental care . This can be for anything from plastic surgery, to dental procedures, to a heart transplant. Many countries around the world are participating in this wonderful new industry.
Many medical travelers find that they save significant money while receiving top quality health care from physicians who are educated and experienced at the same high levels as those in the US. Many medical tourists are traveling because a procedure or treatment is not available in their home country.
Our goal at World Medical Resources is to be a directory for basic and showcase listings as well as a source for information. Visitors can learn about medical tourism and make decisions about their interest in it. They can look for resources in the industry such as physicians, dentists, hospitals, hotels, medical travel facilitators, and many other types of service providers.
You can browse through our articles on important subjects like accreditation of hospitals, the AMA’s recent guidance on medical tourism/medical travel, and other relevant news. Don’t miss our articles on providers of services and procedures who list their businesses on our website. These are providers that WANT YOUR BUSINESS! Keep coming back for new articles and listings as we build our new website!
Take a look at our 3 physician listings:
• Dr Oscar Siller from Monterrey, Mexico is a bariatric surgeon who works with a JCI accredited hospital. See our article on JCI accreditation. Bariatric surgery is a practice that centers on weight loss solutions.
• Dr Luis Da Cruz is a plastic surgeon in San Jose, Costa Rica. He also practices at a JCI accredited hospital.
- • Dr Miguel A Zapata is a Bariatric Surgeon in Monterrey Mexico who specializes in the RNY Gastric Bypass and also performs banding procedures as well.
You can find more information about these surgeons on our website. In the upcoming weeks we will share spotlight articles about these physicians.
Take note also of our medical travel facilitator:
• Med Retreat is a “medical travel facilitator”. The medical travel facilitator is a new industry started as a result of medical tourism. These companies assist the medical tourist with all of the details of their travel as well as the medical portions. Some supply more services than others, however, so discuss this before moving forward.
At World Medical Resources, we give no advice and the only ratings on our site are from registered visitors who decide to write a review. The medical tourist/medical traveler is in the driver’s seat. |
