Medical tourism is defined as traveling out of your local community – out-of-state or out-of-country in search of the best medical care, the best medical spa, and the best overall medical experience.
The Northwest Face Medical Spa at the luxurious Woodmark Hotel in Kirkland, Washington, is making a name for itself as a favorite destination of medical tourists recovering from facial thrifty rent car and body-plastic surgeries as well as head and neck surgeries.
While luxurious accommodations and idyllic ambiance enhance healing and the patient experience, thrifty rent car what is most important is the supervision of the retreat’s post-op treatment protocols by qualified medical professionals.
One of the most important aspects of a recovery retreat is that it be within walking distance to the medical facility where the surgery was performed.  The Woodmark Hotel is right on the same property as the NWF surgical center.
“This property is unique,” says Heather Wheeler, Director of the Northwest Face Medical Spa at the Woodmark Hotel, “It’s a great place to recover: it’s on the water, it’s very serene, and there’s a hub of activity including Starbucks and excellent restaurants in and around the hotel.”
Dr. Ludwig Allegra, founder of Northwest Face, is also the Medical Director for Northwest Face Medical Spa at the Woodmark.  He states: “The reality is that most places that call themselves a ‘medical spa’ employ rented medical staff, resulting in no consistent supervision thrifty rent car by medical professionals. The Woodmark’s Medical Spa is truly a Medical Spa.”“
“Because Northwest Face has four operating rooms for use by surgeons who are not on the NWF staff, we are required to meet the same credentialing requirements as all hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers,” said Arlene Allegra, CEO of Northwest Face.  “We are credentialed by Medicare and by AAAHC, and our nurses are all Physician Assistant-Certified (PA-C )nurses; they can work for NWF or any hospital in Washington State.  I have several nurses who are also trauma nurses at Harborview Hospital in Seattle.”
“We also perform more face and body plastic surgeries than most surgical centers,” Allegra said.  This is important because studies show that, for some conditions, the more procedures thrifty rent car a doctor performs, thrifty rent car the better the outcome.” (Source:  Regency Blue Cross).
“We are a true medical spa.  The difference between a medical spay and a traditional spa is that we offer treatment and services that help with the healing process like lymphatic drainage, certain types of collagen treatments to reduce scarring, and special treatments that promote tissue healing,” explains Allegra.
Medical guests at the Woodmark benefit from the NWF’s team approach to patient care.  “Here, we’re a well-oiled team that has worked together for 20+ years,” thrifty rent car said Allegra, “Our anesthesiologist has been with us for 13 years.”
“We also have very experienced aestheticians,” adds Allegra, “The average experience thrifty rent car is  over 10 years, and their protocols are overseen by a real medical director.  That’s a huge plus, since you have a very experienced team here.”
“You are ushered by a nurse out of the NWF surgical center in a wheelchair, across thrifty rent car the driveway, and into the VIP entrance thrifty rent car at the hotel, “said Jenny Metz, Woodmark’s Marketing Manager, thrifty rent car “You have privacy; you don’t have to go through a full lobby.”
“A nurse from the surgical center accompanies you and your caregiver to your room at the Woodmark, and assists you into bed,” said Metz, “We tuck you in and make sure you and your caregiver have everything thrifty rent car you need and provide staff on hand to assist you with any request.
“We’re really good at customizing every guest’s stay.  Because we have this great relationship with Northwest Face, we provide the patient with exactly what they need,” Metz said, “For example, our front desk staff will run out and fill a patient’s prescription.”
“Patients can take advantage of “Raid the Pantry” our complimentary selection of late night snacks from 11pm- 1pm.”  said Metz, “Maybe you’re thrifty rent car not hungry at 6pm because your anesthesia has not worn off, but at midnight you’re hungry.  Because we are the hotel, we can accommodate that.”
“The Woodmark is absolutely outstanding in a variety of ways”, Allegra noted, “The room is prepped for patient needs; the crushed thrifty rent car ice is there perfectly done in little plastic bags, extra pillows and whatever  supplies you might need.  Northwest Face chooses any partners carefully, and the Woodmark certainly meets our standards.”
“Most cosmetic surgery and any procedure that we’re doing on an ambulatory surgical basis does not require a registered nurse (RN) to be at your bedside,” said Allegra, “But it does require a competent adult to be with you for the next nine to ten hours following surgery, because we may be using significant drugs.”
“Should someone have a special need and want to employ a nurse or a companion, we have a list of medical professionals or companions thrifty rent car for hire,” thrifty rent car said Wheeler, “If you’re a male, we’ll arrange a male companion; thrifty rent car if you’re a female, thrifty rent car we’ll arrange a female companion – someone we know and trust.”
“Our surgeons will always call you the evening of your surgery to check on you,” notes Allegra, “Say you’re surgery was at 7:00am: your surgeon will come to your hotel room at the end of the day around 6:30pm just to check on you.”
“We have seven room-types at the Woodmark.  Medical patients enjoy the same choices of luxury accommodations as other guests; lakeside rooms with balconies, suites, etc,” explains Metz, “and patients of Northwest Face Surgical Center benefit from a corporate rate.”
“I have clients who will schedule thrifty rent car procedures during national holidays when their family members are more available thrifty rent car to accompany them” added Wheeler, the family supports the patient while at the same time enjoying a holiday at a spa resort.”
