Santo Domingo: Médico Express has reached an unprecedented milestone by becoming the health centre with the largest number of certified medical tourism professionals (CMTP) accredited by Global Health Care Accreditation (GHA) worldwide.

This distinction reinforces the medical centre’s commitment to excellence in medical care for international patients and medical tourism.

Global Health Care Accreditation’s Certified Medical Tourism Professional (CMTP) programme is a global standard that ensures health professionals are trained in the key aspects of international medical care, from the quality and safety of the service to the overall management of the patient experience.

This achievement by Médico Express, which is also the first health centre in Latin America certified by Fitwel, consolidates its leadership in the growing medical tourism sector, where the Dominican Republic has positioned itself as the Caribbean leader according to the Medical Tourism Index (MTI).

“We are proud to have a team that is highly trained in the field of medical tourism. CMTP certification reflects our commitment to providing exceptional quality care to local and international patients, ensuring a safe, efficient and first-rate experience”, said Dr Alejandro Cambiaso, executive president of Médico Express.

Medical tourism has shown exponential growth in recent years, with thousands of patients seeking high-quality medical treatment outside their home countries.

Médico Express, with its highly specialised team, international department and cutting-edge technology, is ready to keep innovating and strengthening Dominican health tourism.

This achievement not only positions Médico Express as a benchmark in the industry, it also reinforces its mission of continuing to provide exceptional, accessible medical care.
