FAQ: What is Medical Tourism,
and should I consider that?
Answer: Medical tourism is very popular in certain
countries like Thailand, India, Costa Rica, and Mexico. There are packages that
include insurance for a selection of treatments, travel and doctors. Some of
the reasons for these visits include cancer, osteo, cardio, cosmetic and
dental.
Think about the
quality and the level of satisfaction that you expect if you are going to plan
such a visit, and include interpreters, as well as recovery if needed. There
are three steps, the pre, during and post medical consideration. With today’s
technology and transparency, look for this to grow in the future.
Today’s Episode Destination
is Omaha, Nebraska
Omaha is Famous for
Omaha Steaks and a lot more.
Omaha is a city in the U.S. state of Nebraska, on the
Missouri River close to the Iowa border. A stop on the Lewis & Clark
National Historic Trail, it's known for its pioneer history, museums and
cultural centers. The Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium spearheads conservation
work and features a big cat complex as well as indoor jungle, rainforest and
desert habitats, and I’ll mention that in a minute.

What else
should you do? Visit the Laurstzen Gardens and Kenefer Park
These gardens
are outstanding and so well cared for. I love the rose garden, which was wa-a-ay
out there. Four main types of roses here, in four sections and all smelled
lovely. Asian garden needs work. Children’s garden. You can visit here for
hours if you wish. The greenhouse was closed during Covid.
Other things
to do in Omaha include visits to: Lake Manawa, Heartland of America, Boyer
Chute National Wildlife Refuge, Old Market neighborhood
Visit the Fontenelle
Forest in the morning was beautiful and easy to find, walk and hang out, even
during the rain, which was not stormy….just light drizzle.
Omaha’s Art
Museum was closed during Covid, but outside was a wedding party taking pix and
a mom and kids who were teens all playing in the fountain and having a good
experience learning.
Let’s talk
about Bobbing on the Iowa to Nebraska bridge. You can take a photo in the
middle of the bridge, called Bobbing. This is a verb in this part of the
country, named after the Bob Kerrey bridge. That’s it. You go bobbing when you
stand in two states on a bridge.
