“The end of conflict has opened new vistas for medical tourism in the country and we have already started medical tourism with the Maldives and set up a clinic in the Maldives since our consultants are going there to diagnose patients.

Required surgeries for foreign patients will be in Sri Lanka. We see a massive demand from Maldivians for renal surgeries and look at expanding our services to cater to this demand,” Medawatta said.
