What they have said about the Summit
 |
Renee-Marie Stephano
President MTA
The conclusion of the Egyptian
Wellness and Medical Tourism Summit in Cairo brought
a boost to the medical tourism potential. With no
previous Medical Tourism initiatives, this summit
was the first step in Egypt’s interest in developing
a Medical Tourism Program.

Operations for Sedona Resorts
Vice President ISPA
The Medical Tourism Summit provided
a unique opportunity for the medical and spa
communities to discuss how they can work
collaboratively to enhance their businesses through
the promotion
of wellness and preventative medicine. Many have
asked the question of how medicine and spa best work
together, but the organizers of the summit should be
credited with providing a platform that
took the next step by opening networking channels
that will lead to further development of medical
spas and wellness programs integrated into
traditional medical practices.

"It was a great pleasure
for me to participate in the Egyptian Wellness and

The Egyptian Wellness & Medical Tourism conference
provided a healthy exchange of information &
dialogue between the West and Egyptian medical and
tourism communities. Guest speakers were fully
immersed in Egyptian history and it was a culturally

privilege to be a part of.
