Germany’s medical tourism market is consistently increasing in popularity. Its quality healthcare, ethical standards, and ability to help patients access healthcare quickly at a low cost are some of the reasons medical tourism in Germany remains in high demand.
Medical Tourism Statistics in Germany
Germany ranked 12th globally in quality of facilities, services, and destination environment, while it ranked 36th out of 46 destinations in the medical tourism category in 2020.
When it comes to calculating the number of patients who travel to Germany for treatment, it is somewhat challenging because there are no specific yardsticks to track them. However, most sources that gather data on medical tourism statistics in Germany estimate that it’s around 150,000 to 250,000 annually.
The Most Sought-After Specialities
Although Germany offers various medical treatments to medical tourists, it has developed a remarkable reputation in specific treatments, including cancer, fertility, obesity, cardiology, cardiac surgery, and orthopedics, to name a few. German hospitals are also famous for their comprehensive health and wellness medical checkups.
Medical Treatment in Germany
Most medical travelers come from neighboring countries like Poland, the Netherlands, or France. They visit Germany for medical treatment primarily because of the high-quality standard of the German healthcare system. Also, it is known for its minimal waiting time. Therefore, medical tourists from neighboring countries enjoy faster treatments in Germany compared to their home countries.
Although medical tourism in Germany attracts medical patients worldwide, it has experienced a significant influx of Arab medical tourism patients over the years. Many Arabs from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, and Oman, who used to seek treatment in America, turn to Germany for treatment to skip the hassle associated with traveling to the United States.
