Medical tourism is a rapidly growing industry that combines two of our favorite things: travel and healthcare. People from all over the world are seeking medical treatments abroad and the trend shows no signs of slowing down.
Why medical tourism? For starters, the cost of medical procedures can be significantly lower in other countries making it an attractive option for those who are looking to save money on their medical expenses. In addition, many countries offer cutting-edge medical treatments and technologies that may not be available in your home country.
So what's it like to be a medical tourist? Imagine hopping on a plane passport in hand and traveling to a foreign land in search of medical treatment. You might visit a modern hospital in a bustling city complete with world-class facilities and state-of-the-art technology. Or you might venture to a remote tropical location where you can recover in peace and tranquility.
Either way, the experience of medical tourism is often a unique blend of adventure, exploration, and healing. You will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a new culture try new foods and make new friends. You may even discover a hidden talent for haggling at the local market or find that you have a knack for navigating public transportation.
Of course, medical tourism is not without its challenges. You may face language barriers, cultural differences and the stress of being in a foreign country without the support of your friends and family. However, with proper research and planning, these challenges can be overcome and you can have a truly rewarding experience.

A creature thoughtfully created to supply occasion for the following lines by the illustrious Ambat Delaso:
TO MY PET TORTOISE
My friend, you are not graceful — not at all;
Your gait's between a stagger and a sprawl.
Nor are you beautiful: your head's a snake's
To look at, and I do not doubt it aches.
As to your feet, they'd make an angel weep.
'Tis true you take them in whene'er you sleep.
No, you're not pretty, but you have, I own,
A certain firmness — mostly you're backbone.
Firmness and strength (you have a giant's thews)
Are virtues that the great know how to use —
I wish that they did not; yet, on the whole,
You lack — excuse my mentioning it — Soul.
So, to be candid, unreserved and true,
I'd rather you were I than I were you.
Perhaps, however, in a time to be,
When Man's extinct, a better world may see
Your progeny in power and control,
Due to the genesis and growth of Soul.
So I salute you as a reptile grand
Predestined to regenerate the land.
Father of Possibilities, O deign
To accept the homage of a dying reign!
In the far region of the unforeknown
I dream a tortoise upon every throne.
I see an Emperor his head withdraw
Into his carapace for fear of Law;
A King who carries something else than fat,
Howe'er acceptably he carries that;
A President not strenuously bent
On punishment of audible dissent —
Who never shot (it were a vain attack)
An armed or unarmed tortoise in the back;
Subjects and citizens that feel no need
To make the March of Mind a wild stampede;
All progress slow, contemplative, sedate,
And "Take your time" the word, in Church and State.
O Tortoise, 'tis a happy, happy dream,
My glorious testudinous régime!
I wish in Eden you'd brought this about
By slouching in and chasing Adam out.

The ancient prototype and forerunner of political influence. It was, however, deemed less respectable and sometimes was punished by torture and death. Augustine Nicholas relates that a poor peasant who had been accused of sorcery was put to the torture to compel a confession. After enduring a few gentle agonies the suffering simpleton admitted his guilt, but naïvely asked his tormentors if it were not possible to be a sorcerer without knowing it.
