Dental Tourism in Albania: The Wake-up Call on Call Centers and how to Spot the Premium Clinics
In the world of dental tourism, Albania is an increasingly popular destination for those seeking high-quality dental cares at affordable prices. However, behind this opportunity lies a serious problem: call centers that try to attract patients by offering low-priced packages.
The Hazards of Call Centers in Dental Tourism.
Call centers calling to promote discounted dental tourism packages may sound tempting, but it is important to understand the risks associated with this practice. Often, these call centers do not provide complete information about the proposed dental clinics and focus only on selling. What does this mean?
Lack of Quality: Dental clinics recommended by call centers do not guarantee quality of work, use of certified materials nor the presence of highly trained professionals. Doing so the patient’s health and safety is put at risk.
Financial Interest: Call centers have one goal: to close deals and get commissions on the package sales. This means that they do not put the welfare of patients first and in case of problems, they are relieved of any responsibility, leaving the patient alone and unprotected.
Lack of Transparency: Often, patients receive phone calls promising incredibly affordable packages, but without detailed information about the clinic or the doctors involved. This creates enormous uncertainty for patients and a big question mark over the quality of the proposed work.
The Solution? The Online Video Consultation. Choose only Clinics that put their face to it!
To avoid the risks associated with call centers in dental tourism, the best solution is to look for clinics that offer online video consultations. This approach allows patients to get to know the doctors and take a virtual tour of the clinic, enabling them to actually see the spaces and the professionals involved before making a completely free decision.
Absolute Transparency: Those who are serious and professional have nothing to hide
Gremi Clinic, for example, has been a reference point in dental tourism in Albania since 2009. To make our Clinic even more accessible, we have activated a new service aimed at patients who have the opportunity to book a free video consultation, without any commitment and with absolute respect for the privacy of their health data.
Dental tourism in Albania offers many opportunities for high quality care at affordable prices, but it is essential to beware of call centers that try to take advantage of this trend!
The safest choice is to always look for clinics that promote transparency and offer online video consultations. Gremi Clinic is an example of excellence and transparency in the field, offering patients a reliable way to access high-quality dental services.
