🩺✈️Why Medical Tourism to Iran?
Any foreign traveler might ask why Iran must be the destination for medical treatment and health tours. There are various reasons for choosing Iran for health and medical tourism as Iran is a vast country with excellent treatment options as well as numerous natural and historical attractions. Med Shim Tour has prepared below a brief overview of the main reasons why Iran must be the choice for medical treatment and health for foreigners.
⚕️Traditional medicine in Iran
While traditional medicine existed in most ancient civilizations, the Persian traditional medicine has had a history of several thousand years: it developed through different time periods, influenced Greek medicine and organized it, later merged with Islamic medicine, and became a fully-fledged system for treatment and health.
⚕️The importance of medical education in Iran
Apart from the long history of Iran in traditional medicine, people of Persia have always treasured knowledge and science, and Iranian scholars and scientists have kept up with, and contributed to the, advances in technology and medicine in the world, with the field of medicine having a special place and status among Iranian people as well as the government. The government has invested extensively in advancement of traditional and modern medicine, and various university majors with different minors and concentrations in top universities of Iran are training healthcare specialists. With the considerable number of specialists and healthcare centers in Iran, there is no waiting time for foreign patients who travel to Iran for medical treatment, and Iranian hospital and clinics are prepared and equipped to provide state-of-the-art healthcare services to patients with the utmost expediency. On-demand, high-quality services are among the advantages of choosing Iran for health tourism.
⚕️Technologically-advanced and highly-equipped hospitals
Iran has numerous general and specialized hospitals which are public (government-owned) or private. Only in Shiraz, there are alot of hospitals that offer quality medical services to patients, several of which have started their IPD (International Patients Department) and VIP departments in the past decade and offer premium healthcare services. These hospitals use state-of-the-art equipment and observe all ethical and professional guidelines in their medical services.
⚕️Qualified, experienced, and committed doctors, surgeons, and nurses
Considering the importance of medicine education and treatment in Iran, the number of specialist doctors and qualified surgeons in Iran is significant, and fierce competition in academic and scientific progress has resulted in only top people entering the healthcare sector, especially top hospitals in Shiraz. These committed doctors and surgeons are highly experienced as they have numerous clients on a weekly basis, which in turn has made them exceedingly efficient at diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Shim MedTour has selected healthcare professionals who have no history of malpractice.
⚕️Significantly lower cost for treatment and aftercare in Iran
Among the undesirable (and expected) results of sanctions for the Iranian economy was the dropping of IR rial value against foreign currencies. While this downside took its toll on the Iranian people, it provided foreign nationals with a great opportunity to travel to Iran for a much lower cost. Considering the increasing number of sanctions imposed on Iran in the past few years, the cost for treatment in Iran now would be a small percentage of what it would cost to receive the same treatment (of the same quality) in European countries, and even in Iran’s neighboring countries. It is now the golden time for foreigners to travel to Iran for health and wellness as you can save up to 70% and enjoy your time on vacation.
⚕️5-star hotels with top-notch facilities
Iran has well-equipped 5-star hotels in many cities, and only in Shiraz there are tens of 4-star and 5-star hotels, including Shiraz Grand hotel, Chamran hotel Parsian hotel,Karimkhan hotel, Homa hotel, and etc... “Shim MedTour” can book and suggest the best price for the best hotels in Shiraz and your stay here in the shortest possible time and at the lowest possible rates.
