In recent years, the Republic of Moldova has managed to capture international attention, becoming a favorite destination for medical tourism.
Medical tourism in Moldova is not just about dental treatments, it has become a major center for fertility procedures, plastic surgery and wellness therapies. Moldovan specialists have achieved remarkable results, with a success rate of more than 40% in in vitro fertilization, exceeding the European average. Attractive prices and high quality services are also attracting more and more patients from all over the world.
This expansion of the medical sector has brought considerable economic benefits. In 2022, medical tourism contributed almost €50 million to the Moldovan economy, and by 2024 it is expected to grow by 30%.
Moldova offers competitive prices and visa-free access for many countries,” says Natalia Ciobanu, president of the Moldovan Medical Tourism Association and GHTC. In addition, medical education here is of high quality.
At international level, Moldova has been recognized as a leader in the field, winning the chairmanship of the Global Health Tourism Council (GHTC), ahead of renowned competitors such as Germany and Saudi Arabia.
