Mumbai: Dermatology practice is steadily emerging as one the bigger draws of the Indian healthcare services industry, says Dr. Rinky Kapoor, one of the top dermatologist in the country and co-founder of the Esthetic Clinic. She mentioned that the clinic is seeing more and more patients from abroad. Her Mumbai-based clinic has been the referral centre for various doctors and hospitals from abroad besides India for a number of years.

Dr. Kapoor who regularly blogs to provide general skin care advice on her website, www.rinkykapoor.com, mentioned that besides foreign medical tourists, more and more Indians are getting conscious about their skin care. Dr. Kapoor’s clinic provides various cosmetic surgery, reconstructive surgery as well as skin cancer treatment, in addition to generic medical advice on regular skin problems.

What Dr. Kapoor says is indeed true. Various media sources have reported India becoming one of the top draws for medical treatment. In fact, the government’s initiative to promote medical tourism is only expected to push this status further and the country may well become the most preferred medical tourism destination in the world. What has helped the cause has been the superlative healthcare services provided in the best hospitals in the country at a fraction of the cost of similar treatment in the West and the quality of its doctors.

The quality of Indian doctors can be attested just by looking at Dr. Rinky Kapoor’s curriculum vitae. Besides managing her clinics with founder Dr. Debraj Shome, one of India’s leading skin care specialist, she currently heads the Department of Dermatology, Cosmetic Dermatology and Skin at the S. L. Raheja Fortis Hospital in Mumbai.

Dr. Kapoor is also one of the very few doctors in the world who are experts in the process of non-surgical body contouring. Her extensive training with Boris Kunsevitsky, the Singapore-based international expert on Thermage has also made her a world expert on the treatment. Dr. Kapoor has been received numerous accolades for her work including ‘Best Dermatologist Mumbai’, ‘Top 10 Cosmetic Dermatologist India’, ‘Best Cosmetic Dermatologist Mumbai’, ‘Marquis Who’s Who’, and ‘Celebrity Skin Doctor in World’, among others.
