Global Medical Tourism Inc was incorporated in September 2014. Founded by the ITBD Group, an international healthcare business consultancy group, with links and presence in several countries, we visited and shortlisted 20 world-class healthcare establishments in India, Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico, Brazil, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and other developing countries in 2013-2014, where, we found that the standards of care are compatible, if not better than those available to patients in the tier-1, USA and Canadian Hospitals. Most of these establishments were already receiving referred patients from their counterparts in the USA and Canada and UK.
