This web-based company will provide medical tourism services to visitors seeking safe, effective and personalised medical care with specific programs designed to attract patients around the globe.

"We offer the best international healthcare, individualised services and an opportunity to experience an exotic travel destination while one undertakes a journey of healing," Healing Journey, Director Sanjaya Padmaperuma said.

A team of medical professionals provide the best medical care. The clinical departments of our partner hospitals offer a wide range of primary care, medical and surgical specialities, he said.

Qualified medical practitioners with experience and a collaborative, multi-disciplinary approach leads to improved condition, efficiency and personalised patient care, he said.

Healing Journey works with Sri Lanka's world-class hospitals and treatment facilities to offer patients the best of medical care. The partners of its network of hospitals boast of internationally advanced medical travel facilities and the best of healthcare professionals.

All medical programs are crafted to adhere to international standards of modern medical care and modern facilities which reflect the latest advances in medical treatment.

Asian nations have taken the lead in marketing their hospitals and countries to the new wave of medical tourists. These countries including Sri Lanka have begun to successfully attract patients across the world with enticing prices, shorter flights and cutting-edge technology. We plan to capture this market, Padmaperuma said.
