Coltart pushes medical tourism drive

BULAWAYO could turn its growing medical expertise and infrastructure into an economic opportunity by attracting patients from across the region, mayor David Coltart has said.

Coltart said the city should look beyond conventional healthcare delivery and explore medical tourism as part of efforts to stimulate the local economy.

He was speaking at the Association of Healthcare Funders of Zimbabwe (AHFoZ) annual stakeholders conference being held in Bulawayo under the theme “Mastering the Pivot: Towards Unified Healthcare Access.”
