Medical tourism (also called medical travel, health tourism or global healthcare) is a term initially coined by travel agencies and the mass media to describe the rapidly-growing practice of traveling across international borders to obtain health care.

Such services typically include elective procedures as well as complex specialized surgeries such as joint replacement (knee/hip), cardiac surgery, dental surgery, and cosmetic surgeries.

In earlier period, people prefer to travel India, China and some other countries of Asia to get operated for various diseases. However, things have changed for better service with the modern scientific and information technology. Now medical tourism is gaining popularity in New York City and many patients prefer to visit <a href="http://blepharoplasty-magic.blogspot.com/2008/01/information-for-blepharoplasty-in-new.html">New York for blepharoplasty</a>.
