Healthtrip has expanded its presence to the Middle East with fully operational offices in the UAE and Saudi Arabia to serve the rapidly growing demand of healthcare tourism services in the region. The expansion aligns with the region’s increasing focus on becoming the world’s leading health travel destination, attracting millions of tourists annually. The current health tourism market, generating over $1 Trillion each year, caters to those seeking superior and advanced treatments abroad. With a rapidly aging global population and wealth concentrated in the silver age segment, the sector is experiencing 18% annual growth, fuelled by increased access to information and awareness on improved health spans.

The company offers a wide-reaching network through partnerships with 1,500 hospitals and sanatoriums in the US, UK, Germany, UAE, Saudia Arabia, Thailand, India, Singapore and Egypt. The company has served over 65,000 customers from 38 countries, through an AI driven platform that provides personalized and intelligent care by connecting individuals with providers based on treatment type, rating, cost, and location. The company also provides extensive destination services, including hotel bookings, airport transfers, concierge services, and interpreters.
