With the emergence of medical tourism around the world, many countries began to receive international patients seeking better solutions at a better price to solve their health problems. It is a fact that many countries and cities have become famous for specific specialization, such as Switzerland for stem cells and South Korea for cosmetic surgery. The reason for this is the natural tendency to focus and invest resources to improve what they are already good at, thus creating more demand for a singular treatment in a specific city.

Barcelona was initially known for being very advanced in eye surgery and is now becoming increasingly known for helping patients with neurological and spinal problems in both adults and children.  By building hospitals with ultramodern equipment and technologies, associated with some of the best-known hospitals in Europe, and managed by some of the most renowned surgeons in Spain and Europe, Barcelona is one of the main destinations for medical tourism in the Neuro & Spine field (Spine Center Barcelona).
