We would like to inform you that Kiran Infertility Centre has decided to terminate its relationship with PlanetHospital. the reason for the same was because of all the irregularities and fraud and
money laundering committed by Mr. Rudy Rupak Acharya during his time with PlanetHospital as CEO of PlanetHospital. He has committed acts to de-fame Kiran Infertility Centre by spreading wrong information, creating false web-sites and e-mail IDs of Kiran Infertility Centre and its associates and providing false information to clients.

I tried to work with Planet Hospital and their Surrogate program, but they simply couldn't deliver. Red flags and inconsistencies in communication and pricing galore. Prospects beware!!!

You wrote: "the willingness to travel varies directly by age." I do not see that in dental tourism the branch of medical tourism that my company works in. Within dental tourism the age varies from 20's to seniors, depending mostly on the type of treatment. Just look at full dental implants and new teeth in place of dentures. That can cost up to 50,000 USD and seniors will travel overseas for the savings, up to 60%. A big factor for North Americans is location. It is becoming clearer to the medical tourism industry that people will travel, but close to home, to places they have been or their friends or family. North Americans to Costa Rica, Australians to Thailand and Western Europeans to Eastern Europe for dental.
For cosmetic treatments, affluent Chinese are flying to South Korea and Taiwan, both countries are marketing themselves as medical tourism destinations, but not to the North American market - it's just too far.
