doctors-on-tour | International CME Tour Programs for Health Care Professionals

Welcome to Doctors-on-Tour

We pride ourselves on having provided fascinating and educational international tours to health care professionals since 2000. 

We offer targeted educational programs in a relaxed, informal environment with a varied CME component including an Academic Conference with both local and Canadian speakers and visits to local medical facilities to meet with local doctors. In addition, and dependent upon the destination, we also offer either a review of local alternative and complimentary healing practices relevant to the region (for example, Ayurvedic Medicine and acupuncture in Sri Lanka and Traditional Chinese Medicine in South East Asia) and, also, increasingly in Western Medicine or, in first world destinations, leading edge medical technology (for example a visit to deCODE Genetics, a global leader in analyzing and understanding the human genome, in Iceland and seeing robotic medical devices developed by Cyberdyne in Japan).

Meanwhile, your non-physician partners are engaged with their own interesting activities. And away from the medical element, explore these fascinating destinations and cultures through expert local guides in a convivial group of your peers highlighting the cultural and ecological aspects of the region. 

What our clients have to say...

“I have been fortunate to enjoy four trips with Doctors-on-Tour since 2009 -- to Ecuador, Vietnam/Cambodia/Laos, India and Bali. All these tours were wonderful. Well-organized, excellent accommodations, top notch guides, remarkable CME experiences that broaden one's outlook on medicine and really great leaders of the tours. You should seriously consider taking one of these exotic trips. Beats lying on a beach!"

Dr. Linda Rapson, Toronto, On. - 2013

“It was an amazing trip through Vietnam, Cambodia & Laos. It exceeded all our expectations. Dr. Peter and Mary (Bloch) were gracious hosts. Their thirst for adventure and generosity of spirit added so much to our trip.  The group we traveled with were a great bunch and we hope to cross paths in the future. The CMEs were informative and I enjoyed seeing the varied medical sites in each country”.

Dr. Tom Stark, Timaru, New Zealand - Vietnam, Cambodia & Laos, 2014

"The trip was exceptional in every way. Our guide was more than just a tour guide - the knowledge she shared was detailed and interesting - what an ambassador for her country ! The high level of care that she offered was above and beyond anything that we have ever experienced. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this trip ! Thank you !"

Dr. Les Marien, Orangeville, On. - New Zealand, 2016

“This was an exceptional trip! Everything was perfectly well orchestrated.  It feels like we have been travelling for more than two weeks. We have learned so much. We will definitely recommend this trip to our friends.  We have seen so many things. We have had exceptional guides. The group we travelled with was fantastic! Again, an amazing adventure!”

Dr. Collette Deslandres-Leduc, Montreal, Qc. – Ecuador and Peru, 2018

“After I had thought the Ecuador (Amazon rainforest and Galapagos) and Peru Doctors-on-Tour trip could not be beat - this trip to Malaysia and Singapore was just as good. The Malaysia portion was incredible - so many things to see and learn. The rainforest component in Borneo was an incredible experience. Singapore was more relaxing, but we also saw and learned a lot. A very worthwhile addition to the trip. Great group, great guides. Adventurous travel, worry free”.
