1. 1
   Capability review. We meet your international desk and key specialists to confirm what you can offer patients from abroad, including interpreters, visa support letters, accommodation tie-ups and teleconsultation follow-up.
2. 2
   Market plan. We choose two or three markets and specialties based on your strengths and the international enquiries you already receive, rather than advertising everywhere.
3. 3
   Build. International pages, the WhatsApp set-up and reply templates go live before any ad spend, so the first enquiries are handled well.
4. 4
   Campaigns and review. We run Arabic and English campaigns in the chosen markets and review each month which countries send serious enquiries, moving budget accordingly.

Edappally is where NH 66 and NH 544 meet under the flyover, with Amrita Hospital at Ponekkara nearby and Lulu Mall drawing shoppers from across central Kerala. The road towards Palarivattom is lined with dental, skin and hair, eye and diagnostic centres, while residential pockets such as Vattekunnam, Elamakkara and Mamangalam support family clinics, paediatricians and physiotherapy practices. Patients range from long-settled Edappally families and Amrita's student and staff community to young professionals renting near the metro and shoppers passing through; they search using the mall, metro stations and the church junction as landmarks and often open three or four listings to compare ratings before calling.

We run medical tourism marketing by specialty, because multispecialty hospitals and dental clinics in Edappally are searched for in different ways:

• Multispecialty hospital marketing in EdappallyEdappally already has Amrita Hospital at Ponekkara, and Renai Medicity is a short drive away at Palarivattom, so a mid-sized hospital here competes department by department, with named consultants and OPD timings, rather than on its name.
• Dental clinic marketing in EdappallyLulu Mall, the metro stations and the offices along NH 66 bring a steady flow of people through Edappally, and short appointments such as a check-up or urgent tooth pain are often booked by people who are already nearby.
• Skin clinic marketing in EdappallySkin, hair and cosmetic practices operate along the bypass between Edappally and Palarivattom, so a skin clinic here is often compared with others a short drive away on the same search, and doctor credentials and clear procedure information decide the choice.
• Paediatric clinic marketing in EdappallyYoung families renting near the metro and in Elamakkara and Vattekunnam often look for a paediatrician they can reach without crossing the Edappally junction at peak hours, so the clinic on their side of the flyover tends to get the call.

International pages and the WhatsApp enquiry process usually take four to eight weeks to set up properly. Serious international enquiries often take several months to turn into admissions, because families compare options, arrange visas and plan travel around work and school holidays. Medical tourism marketing is usually a monthly retainer, with ad spend in each market paid by you directly to Google and Meta. Scope depends on the number of markets, languages and specialties, how many international pages and videos are needed, and whether we support your international desk with templates and training. Any arrangement you have with medical tourism facilitators is separate from our fee, and because the NMC's October 2026 guidelines restrict commissions and per-patient payments connected with procuring patients, check facilitator contracts with your legal adviser.

From Edappally, our office opposite Aster Medcity is about 9 km, 20 to 30 minutes by road. Patients here often search by landmark, such as Edappally Toll, Edappally church junction and Changampuzha Park, so local pages and your Google Business Profile have to use those names.

• Medical tourism marketing: how we work

Can our hospital or clinic in Edappally attract international patients if it is not a large tertiary hospital?

Yes, if it offers something worth travelling for, such as a planned procedure, an ayurveda programme or dental work that fits a short visit, and can answer enquiries quickly in English or Arabic. Many enquiries come from Malayali families in the Gulf arranging care for parents near their home town, which can favour hospitals outside the big cities. We assess this honestly in the audit before you spend anything on campaigns.

Which visa do international patients need to come to India for treatment?

India offers medical and e-medical visas for patients, attendant visas for companions, and a separate Ayush visa for treatment under ayurveda and other Indian systems of medicine. Eligible countries, documents and rules change, so your international desk should always point patients to the official Indian visa portal or the nearest Indian mission. We write that guidance into your pages and reply templates.

Do you work with medical tourism facilitators or replace them?

We work alongside them. Facilitators bring patients from markets where you have no direct presence, while your own pages and campaigns bring direct enquiries, so we prepare facilitator materials and track the two sources separately. How you contract with facilitators is your decision, but the NMC's October 2026 advertising guidelines bar doctors from paying or receiving commissions or referral fees connected with procuring patients, so check any per-patient commission arrangement with your legal adviser.
