"The Gulf is where the next growth of medical tourism will come from" said Mohammed Alarifi, the managing director for the new operation.
"It is not only a destination from where patients seek medical care abroad but is also becoming a medical tourism destination inbound thanks to major hospital developments in the region," he added.
PlanetHospital has had several clients from the Middle East utilize its services in the past to get innovative medical care in the top medical destinations around the globe.
PlanetHospital Middle East will be aggressively promoting its ability to generate patient volume to the Gulf region hospitals, work with local new insurance providers to create a medical tourism based benefit, and eventually attract Middle Eastern based workers from the US to come to the region for medical treatment.
