When an individual travels out of state or country for a medical procedure, they are engaging in medical tourism. Traditionally, people travel to foreign countries for medical procedures because it is not offered or is more expensive in their hometown. It is estimated that up to 750,000 U.S. residents travel abroad for care each year. Cosmetic surgery, dentistry, and heart surgery are the three most common procedures that people undergo on medical tourism trips.
Today, medical tourism is popular to individual who seek a private retreat for their procedures. Traveling patients are able to rest and recover on their own schedule, all the while enjoying a dream travel destination.

Asheville has a historical reputation as a haven for healing and renewal. As early as 1795, records document the town's widespread reputation as a uniquely therapeutic place. Wellness tourism in the area grew rapidly during that time, and skyrocketed after the WNC Railroad line expanded to reach the town in 1880. This made the town easily accessible nationwide. Since then, the town curative reputation has attracted world-renown medical professionals.
For its reputed healing mountain air, many patients sought treatment in the Asheville area. The town build boarding houses to accommodate this influx. Individuals seeking top of the line medical care made the pilgrimage to Asheville, and they relocated permanently because the town so enchanted them. Edwin W. Grove and George Vanderbilt were among these incomers who were originally drawn to the area for its pioneering medical care.
