Thumbay Hospital, the leading network of private academic hospitals operated by the Hospitality Division of Thumbay Group, will conduct a medical tourism meet in Bangladesh on August 5.

Considered as the pioneers of Medical Tourism in the UAE, the Thumbay Hospital network, with its academic hospitals in Dubai, Ajman, Sharjah, Fujairah and Hyderabad (India), have been making significant strides in medical tourism through Thumbay Medical Tourism (TMT), Thumbay Group’s award-winning medical tourism initiative. The medical tourism departments in all the hospitals, including Thumbay Hospital Hyderabad focus on marketing the services to international patients through innovative methods. Last year on World Tourism Day, Thumbay Hospital had welcomed its 6,000th medical tourist.

Thumbay Hospital is also a proud partner in the Dubai Health Experience (DXH), the prestige brand conceived by the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) to strengthen the position of Dubai on the world map of medical tourism. TMT has established representative offices in 87 countries, giving further fillip to Thumbay Hospitals’ medical tourism ambitions.
