• A market and specialty plan that picks two or three countries and services matching patient demand there and your clinical strengths
• International patient pages in Arabic and English covering doctors, any accreditation you hold, the treatment journey, estimates, travel and stay
• Search campaigns aimed at treatment searches from the chosen GCC and other markets
• Doctor explainer videos in English with Arabic subtitles
• Reply templates for estimates, medical report requests and visa support letters, with estimates always presented as estimates
• Monthly reporting on enquiries by country, specialty and channel, including how many enquirers shared medical reports

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.

Kayamkulam has a Government Taluk Headquarters Hospital and a cluster of private hospitals, nursing homes, labs and specialist clinics along NH 66 and the KP Road towards Punalur. As the largest town in the Onattukara region and a major railway junction, it draws patients from Krishnapuram, Oachira and the surrounding villages, while complex cases often go on to Kollam, Thiruvalla or Kochi. Many families have members working in the Gulf who help choose and pay for care, alongside farming households from the Onattukara villages and staff from the NTPC township at Choolatheruvu.

We run medical tourism marketing by specialty, because dental clinics and fertility and IVF clinics in Kayamkulam are searched for in different ways:

• Dental clinic marketing in KayamkulamWorkers home from the Gulf on leave, and parents whose dental treatment is paid for from abroad, both need treatment plans and estimates they can share on WhatsApp, so a dental clinic that provides these quickly fits how Kayamkulam families decide.
• Fertility and IVF clinic marketing in KayamkulamCouples in Kayamkulam where one partner works in the Gulf may have only a few weeks together each year, so a fertility clinic should explain how consultations, tests and treatment cycles can be planned around that leave and what can be done in advance.
• Diagnostic centre marketing in KayamkulamRelatives in the Gulf often book and pay for a parent's health check-up, so a diagnostic centre in Kayamkulam should make packages, preparation instructions and report sharing on WhatsApp easy to follow from abroad.
• Maternity hospital marketing in KayamkulamBy long Kerala custom a woman often goes to her parents' home for her first delivery, and in Kayamkulam the husband is often working in the Gulf, so a maternity hospital's pages should let both families see the obstetricians, rooms and visiting arrangements well before the due date.

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 Kayamkulam, our office opposite Aster Medcity is about 115 km, roughly two and a half to three hours by road. Kayamkulam Junction has frequent trains to Ernakulam on both the Alappuzha and Kottayam lines. Patients here often search by landmark, such as Krishnapuram, Kayamkulam Junction railway station and KP Road, 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 Kayamkulam 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.
