The city of Adana, Turkey's 4th largest city, hosted a symposium entitled, "Health Tourism, the Role and Importance of Neighboring and Middle Eastern Countries" last Saturday. The conference was organized by the Association of Improving Health Tourism and was part of a larger medical fair sponosored by the Cukurova Association of Medical Industrialists.
I was very pleased to be one of the 3 invited international guest speakers and my topic focused on the importance of thermal spa tourism. Dr. Ratib Hinnawi, a Health Tourism Consultant from Jordan spoke about Jordan's medical tourism initiatives while Dr. Constantine Constantinides, CEO of healthCare cybernatives, and a physician in Greece gave a global overview of the industry.
Medical tourism is growing at an accelerated clip and estimates suggest it will be a $100 billion global indutry in 2 years.
