Synopses & Reviews

Book News Annotation:

Hundreds of thousands of Americans each year travel to other countries to receive medical care by US-trained physicians in state-of-the-art facilities at a fraction of the cost in the US. In this guide for the medical tourist, Gahlinger (medicine, University of Utah) draws on his experience as a physician, hospital director, and professor of public health to overview issues related to medical tourism. He gives tips on deciding where to go and how to prepare for and pay for the trip, and overviews procedures medical tourists often travel abroad for, such as cosmetic surgery, joint replacement, and stem-cell therapy. About 47 country entries give information on the medical tourism situation in each country, list typical prices for common procedures, and provide phone, mail, and electronic contact information for hospitals and travel services. B&w photos and notes on each country's politics and travel requirements are also included. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
