These resources cover topics such as potential complications from plastic surgery abroad, market analysis of the medical tourism industry, locations for overseas retirement, and ethical dilemmas related to seeking healthcare in other countries. Some publications address specific procedures like knee replacements and orthopedic surgeries, while others discuss trends like Americans living abroad and the draw of medical tourism for specific demographics. Readers, including people with disabilities and seniors, may find these publications interesting, useful, and insightful for making informed decisions about healthcare and travel.
