DALLAS, TX and AUSTIN, TX–(EMWNews – August 4, 2008) – Texas residents will have the
first look at the growing array of options for accessing high quality
medical care at significantly lower costs when the first consumer-focused
medical travel expos debut in the Lone Star State: Your Medical Travel & Health
Expos:
Saturday, Sunday, October 25-26, 2008, Hilton DFW Lakes, Dallas, Texas; Saturday, Sunday, November 1-2, 2008, Renaissance Hotel, Austin, Texas.
“Texas is a logical location to kick-off this year-long schedule of medical
travel consumer expos, based upon the high level of interest among Texans
who either pay their own medical bills or seek procedures not covered by
their medical insurance,” states Skip Brickley, CEO of Transmarx, LLC, one
of the country’s premier conference and trade show producers. “Traveling
to nearby destinations such as Central and South America, Asia, New
Zealand, and Israel, means documented high quality care at a fraction of
U.S. costs. Hospitals, providers, medical travel experts, spas, and
wellness centers throughout the world will be on hand to offer education
and guidance. It is the first show of its kind and all participants look
forward to meeting Texas residents.”
Brickley adds that Americans are ready to take advantage of the benefits of
medical travel and anxious to learn more about the latest developments in
health and wellness. Attendees will have the opportunity to take part in a
wide range of health and wellness activities, including personal visits
with medical travel facilitators and providers; free health screenings;
meetings with on-site personal trainers; and opportunities to learn more
about healthy eating.
“There will be a wealth of resources on hand to help people discover their
options for specialty care including orthopedic, cardiac, dental,
bariatric, and cosmetic surgery,” says Brickley. “Today, Americans are
also interested in opportunities to access care that is not available in
the U.S. such as stem cell transplantation, organ transplants as well as
lower cost in-vitro fertilization (IVF). People are amazed that these
options now exist.”
Expo visitors can also take advantage of health screenings including blood
pressure and cholesterol testing, disease management counseling, healthy
nutrition, fitness, and exercise coaching. Giveaways and prize drawings
will supplement the informational and educational experience.
Registration for the Dallas and Austin expos will soon be active. For
