Patients Beyond Borders is the world’s most trusted source of consumer information about international medical and health travel.
Welcome!
....from Patients Beyond Borders' Founder Josef Woodman
Patients Beyond Borders did not come about in a vacuum. When I was first examined for a complex dental condition, I well remember the sticker shock that accompanied my diagnosis, and the many frustrations I encountered attempting to find the best, most affordable medical solution, first here in the US, then abroad. I also recall how pleasantly surprised and gratified I was to eventually connect with talented, qualified, customer-driven professionals who listened to my story, evaluated my needs, then took the right steps to help me access the right care at a great price, and ensure my safe trip home.
Since my treatment, I've had the pleasure of meeting so many patients like you who are seeking access to safe, affordable, quality-assured medical care. As always, the journey involves a community of trusted relationships that build confidence and comfort, and pave the way for a successful medical outcome.
