چکیده | ||
The medical tourism is a rapidly growing and profitable global industry, with its market value expected to hit $278.2 billion by 2025. Several key factors, such as lower costs, higher quality healthcare, and shorter waiting times in other countries, drive this expansion. Recently, using celebrity endorsements and advertisements has emerged as a widespread practice in promoting products and services in many sectors, including healthcare. This letter to the editor seeks to highlight the significant potential of celebrity endorsements in drawing international patients, thereby enhancing the medical tourism sector. Celebrity endorsements serves as a highly effective marketing strategy in diverse industries, capitalizing on the credibility and widespread appeal of well-known figures. The underlying psychology of this phenomenon is based on the concept of social proof, where individuals are more likely to believe that a product or service is of high quality if it is promoted by someone they respect or idolize, such as actors, singers, athletes, or social media influencers. | ||
