Dubai, UAE (October 31, 2016). Global OrthoBiologic, Inc. (GOB), a leader in regenerative medicine currently doing business in more than 30 countries, announces a strategic Joint Venture with Lamar Holidays, a worldwide luxury travel and tourism company to provide Medical Tourism.
Medical tourism is defined as traveling from one location to another with a purpose to gain medical assistance. Generally, people from developing nations travel to developed countries for medical treatments that are unavailable in their own countries due to poor medical and healthcare infrastructure. However, in recent years, people residing in developed economies have also begun traveling to lesser developed countries in order to gain cost-efficient medical assistance. Medical Tourism or Medical Travel is a combination of wellness and healthcare coupled with leisure and relaxation which is aimed at rejuvenating a person mentally, physically and emotionally, drawing away from his daily routine to a relaxed environment in a nice and attractive location.
This partnership will provide patients across the globe the opportunity to be treated by members of the GOB Global Academy, a team of internationally known doctors and scientists offering cutting edge treatments providing better and faster recovery times.

Mihail Blagoev (GOB Vice President, International Business Development) “Medical tourism is seen as direct result of globalization of healthcare services. The falling cost of medical procedures in the Philippines, India, Singapore, Thailand, Mexico, Malaysia, Brazil, Turkey, Taiwan, South Korea, Poland, Costa Rica, and Dubai is encouraging people to travel to these countries for their treatment and, in turn, is propelling the global medical tourism market significantly. With rising initiatives by government, the UAE healthcare market is witnessing an astonishing growth in medical tourism in the region. The UAE government is extensively expanding and upgrading the existing infrastructure to match or exceed the quality of service offered in any country around the world.”
