We speak with Dr. Mark Halsted, Founder & CEO of MD For Patients who provides insights on the business and what to expect from this revolutionary consultancy service.

Who Does MD For Patients Serve?

“Our clients are incredibly capable,” Dr. Halsted notes. “They’re managing a lot—and they deserve the same thoughtful attention they give everything else in their lives.”

We work with:

  • Expats settling into new countries

  • Relocated professionals and executives balancing intense workloads

  • Families seeking trusted partners in managing cross-border care

  • Anyone navigating vague, complex, or unresolved health concerns

  • Physicians who want to extend their care to their patient by collaborating with specialists

What can Patients and their Local Physicians Expect?

“We tailor our offerings as needed by the local physician and the patient, but generally, you can expect the following:

  • Complete review of your medical history, diagnostics, and goals

  • One-on-one virtual consultation with the specialist you need, chosen from our broad group of specialists

  • Clear summary — a written report shared with your local provider

  • Support for next steps—whether you're in Geneva, Dubai, Singapore, or São Paulo”

What Common Scenarios Do Travelers, Relocated Employees, and ExPatriots Experience?

“We hear from a variety of patients and providers who describe a number of interesting scenarios. I ask, do any of these scenarios we hear about resonate with you?"

  • “I just moved…” The local healthcare system is confusing, and I don’t know where to start.

  • “Remote life, remote health…” Time zones and travel make it hard to get real continuity of care.

  • “Something’s still not right…” I’ve seen a few doctors, but I feel like something’s being missed.

  •  “I’m managing my whole family’s care…” I need support—not just for me, but for my spouse or kids.

  • “I just need a clear plan…” I’m tired of conflicting advice. I need a clear path forward.

If any of these resonate with you, we’d love to support you with the care you deserve.”

What Should Patients and Physicians Do if They Want to Take a Deeper Look at Their Health?

Our goal is to bring you clarity, calm, and expert guidance—wherever you are in the world. “
