A top marketing spokesperson for the firm said, “Despite the incredible advancements in medicine over the last several decades, infertility is still a significant challenge for many people planning families. Lifestyle factors such as stress and poor nutrition are a major contributor to the problem, and they’re unlikely to subside anytime soon. It makes sense that fertility treatment would become prominent in the medical travel world, so offering info on these types of providers is another way we can assist patients.”

Medical tourists seeking a retreat from traditional Western medicine can partake in what is known as CAM, or Complementary and Alternative Medicine, which is comprised of a wide range of therapies that examine the body, mind, and spirit when addressing illnesses. Holistic facilities such as clinics offering anti-aging treatment, and alternative centers like ones practicing Chinese medicine, fall into this category. Patients in search of information about this type of care can find it at myMEDholiday.com which, as with its listings of traditional medical providers, now includes comprehensive data pertaining to CAM providers.

RSS, or Rich Site Summary, allows regular visitors to subscribe to their favorite websites and receive notifications whenever new information is published, making it easy to stay up-to-date without the inconvenience of manually inspecting multiple websites for fresh content.

A simple drop-down box on the homepage allows users to choose their language, and within seconds all text is changed from English, the default, into the new vernacular.

Now, not only will users be able to research and contact facilities in popular healthcare destinations, they will be able to reach out to firms known as medical tourism companies, or medical tourism agencies, who are in business to assist travelers with their medical holiday plans.
