• Search campaigns aimed at treatment searches from the chosen GCC and other markets
• Facebook and Instagram campaigns for the Malayali diaspora in the Gulf, who often arrange care for parents and relatives back home
• Reply templates for estimates, medical report requests and visa support letters, with estimates always presented as estimates
• Brochures and presentations for facilitators, embassies and corporate partners
• 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.

For a town of its size, Thiruvalla has several private hospitals: Pushpagiri Medical College Hospital at Perumthuruthy, Believers Church Medical College Hospital at Kuttapuzha and the Tiruvalla Medical Mission hospital near the railway station. Around them sit specialist clinics, dental and eye centres, labs and nursing homes, and patients come in from upper Kuttanad villages such as Niranam and Kadapra and from across Pathanamthitta district. Many families have members working as nurses and professionals in the Gulf, Europe and North America, and they compare hospitals online, often in English, before a parent is admitted. Local patients from Niranam, Kadapra and the MC Road towns tend to choose on a named doctor's reputation and on reviews.

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

• Dental clinic marketing in ThiruvallaFamilies visiting from abroad often try to fit dental work into a home visit, so a Thiruvalla dental clinic should be honest about what one stay can achieve, since implants, for example, usually need more than one visit, and make it easy to plan by WhatsApp before arrival.
• Fertility and IVF clinic marketing in ThiruvallaMany young couples from Thiruvalla work abroad, often in nursing, and come home for a few weeks at a time, so a fertility clinic should explain clearly what can be done in one stay, what needs a return visit and how consultations work from overseas.
• Physiotherapy clinic marketing in ThiruvallaAfter surgery at one of the town's hospitals, many patients need rehabilitation nearer home in Thiruvalla or the upper Kuttanad villages, which is an opening for physiotherapy clinics that explain their home-visit or evening options.
• Orthopaedic hospital marketing in ThiruvallaKnee or hip surgery for an elderly parent is often planned around a son's or daughter's leave from abroad, so orthopaedic pages should set out the path from first consultation to recovery and the support available after discharge.

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 Thiruvalla, our office opposite Aster Medcity is about 110 km, roughly two and a half to three hours by road. Thiruvalla station has frequent trains to Ernakulam via Kottayam, which can be easier than the MC Road. Patients here often search by landmark, such as SCS Junction, Kavumbhagam and Kuttapuzha, 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 Thiruvalla 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.
