Health Tourism in Iran
Why choose Health Tourism in Iran?
Iran is rapidly becoming a health tourism hub in the Middle East and perhaps in the
world, especially for cosmetic surgeries! Pars Med Travel, one of the largest
active centers in the field of health tourism, has been able to bring 100%
satisfaction to its customers with years of experience and successful projects. Pars
Med Travel is by your side not only during the treatment of the disease, but also
after it, so that you can fully walk the path of your health. Due to the highly
experienced medical staff and affordable costs, Pars Med travel has become one of
the best choices for health tourists.
Affordable services
Years of struggling with inflation have significantly reduced the value of the
Iranian currency compared to the dollar and the euro. Now, a total rhinoplasty
package in Iran is almost 90% cheaper than surgery in the United States. World
class medical facilities
Choosing a medical career has the most demand among Iranians. A lot of
enthusiasm in this field has made hospitals and clinics always seek to improve their
facilities and provide advanced technologies for their employees and patients.
Talented and experienced surgeons
Most specialists in Iran receive their medical degrees from renowned schools in the
United States, Europe and Iran, and after years of serious training, they face a wide
market. In addition, the high number of applicants for cosmetic surgery has
increased the skill of Iranian doctors and some of our famous surgeons perform
more than 3 surgeries a day. This issue has also attracted the attention of foreigners
looking for beauty.
Fast and available service
Providing fast services in response to people’s needs is one of the important factors
in attracting health tourists. As a medical tourist, you don’t have to miss the chance
of timely treatment by staying on the waiting list. One of the advantages in Iran is
the possibility of receiving medical services quickly and without appointments.
Traditional and alternative methods
Iran has a long history in traditional medical methods with a clear vision. Many
traditional herbal treatments are still an integral part of Iranians’ daily life.
Iran is also a land of Hot Springs, volcanic mud and mineral springs around which
many medical resorts have been built to make it easy for enthusiasts to take
advantage of their benefits.
Rich history, outstanding culture and landscape
The salient aspect of health tourism is its combination with other activities. A
therapeutic tourist in Iran can have enjoyable experiences. The first Iranian
government dates back to 4000 BC, and since then Iran has hosted many rulers and
dynasties, whose relics can still be found in every corner of this land. Also, the
unique and diverse nature of our country, Iran, is a unique choice for anyone who
is interested in spending an attractive vacation.
What are the leading cities of health tourism in Iran?
Tabriz, Ilam, Sanandaj, Ardabil, Tehran and Shiraz, etc., can be considered among
the leading cities of health tourism in Iran, which have succeeded in attracting
medical tourists from neighboring countries.
Health tourism has been able to reach different cities and parts of the country since
its development in Iran. The reason for the boom of health tourism in different
cities of the country is that some cities of the country have traditionally hosted
medical tourists from neighboring countries and some other cities have been able
to provide health services to them due to the attraction of general tourists in recent
years.
In this article, we would like to discuss the 5 important health tourism cities of the
country and the reasons for the development of medical tourism in them.
–
Mashhad: the medical tourism capital of Iran; Mashhad is one of the leading cities
in health tourism in Iran. Mashhad was one of the first cities in Iran that defined
medical tourism in the form of an inclusive industry and various services for
medical tourists. Cosmetic surgeries, hair transplants and general surgeries are the
most important health services provided in Mashhad.
–
Tehran: the fierce competition of private hospitals to attract medical tourists.
Tehran has the most medical facilities and the largest number of hospitals, clinics
and doctors. Therefore, it is not far from the mind that this city is one of the most important health tourism cities in the country. For a long time, health tourists from
different countries, including countries such as Kuwait, the UAE, Russia, and other
European countries, have been visiting Tehran for treatment. Prominent eye
clinics, orthopedics, infertility treatment clinics, beauty and organ transplant
centers, etc. have the most demand among health tourists from other countries who
travel to Tehran.
–
Shiraz: Shiraz is a four-season city with a mild climate and hospitable people. This
southern city of Iran has long been a favorite destination for many citizens of
Persian Gulf countries, including the UAE, Kuwait and Oman.
–
Ahvaz: The first destination of Iraqis. The city of Ahvaz, which is not far from the
Iraqi border, has been hosting Iraqis who were looking for qualified Iranian doctors
for treatment since the borders of Iran and Iraq were opened to each other’s citizens.
Ahvaz has been one of the first choices of Iraqis for a medical trip to Iran
due to its linguistic and cultural affinity with Iraqi citizens and the long-standing
family relationship between some citizens of this city and the citizens of cities such
as Basra, Karbala and Najaf. It has been included in the list of leading health
tourism cities in Iran.
–
Urmia: The first destination of Kurdistan Region citizens. It may be strange how
Urmia has become one of the leading cities of health tourism in Iran. Urmia is the
capital of West Azarbaijan province and the closest big city of Iran to the center of
Kurdistan Region of Iraq, Erbil. Most of the Iraqi Kurds who live in the north of
the Kurdistan Region, including the center of this region, prefer to travel several
hours by land to Piranshahr and from there to Urmia so that they can receive high-
quality medical services.
