GlobalScore
How we choose the dentists in our network
GlobalScore is how we pre-screen doctors before they join. It was built with medical and dental advisors so you can see what we check, not just a star rating.
Qualifications and credentials
Doctors show us where they trained, their specialty, certifications, recognitions and memberships. U.S.-based training is noted when they have it.
- Academic background
- Level of specialty
- Board certifications
- Associations and memberships
Doctor's experience
We look at how long they have practiced, how many procedures they have done and whether they regularly treat international patients.
- Years of experience
- Number of procedures performed
- Experience with international patients
- Research and teaching
Location and facilities
We visit the clinic and look at the equipment, how clean and comfortable it is, and whether the location is practical for someone traveling.
- Safety of the destination and the clinic location
- Technology and equipment
- Cleanliness and comfort
- Hotels, restaurants and transportation nearby
- Accessibility
Patient experience
International patients need more than a good clinical result. We check that the clinic can look after someone who does not live there.
- Verified online reviews
- English-speaking doctor and staff
- Payment options
