The first Maldives Health and Medical Expo has begun in the National Art Gallery organised by the MV Medicals and Medlife Asia to inform tourists about the medical services available in the Maldives, and to provide information to the general public about the treatments available in nearby countries and local hospitals.
MV Medicals says that the expo will be held annually starting this year.
ADK Hospital, the main sponsor of the expo, said that Maldives has world class treatments available but the public not being aware of it is something that has been a huge setback. They say that it is important for the patients to know the best hospitals in nearby countries as well, and that this expo will do an important job in delivering that information.
