"It was an honor to attend and speak at the conference. It is always great to have many influential people of healthcare travel in one place and you did that in a very nice and interesting way."

Dr. Ziad Abdulhak - UAE Embassy

“The World Medical Tourism and Global Healthcare Congress’s VIP Program allowed me the opportunity to explore many new programs to help my clients cut benefit costs and offer their employees more choices in getting the best healthcare possible. Without the VIP Program, I would have missed this valuable opportunity. I made many, many great contacts and learned so much. I can’t wait to come back next year!”
