What Clinic Hunter does

Clinic Hunter, operating as ClinicHunter Sp. z o.o., is a medical tourism marketplace headquartered in Lublin, Poland, that connects patients seeking affordable treatment abroad with partner clinics in Poland, Hungary and Turkey. The platform serves a long tail of individual medical travelers originating primarily from the UK, Scandinavia and the US, covering six procedure categories: bariatric surgery, dentistry, plastic surgery, hair loss treatment, orthopedics and eye surgery. The core product surface consists of a Clinic Finder marketplace with granular, SEO-optimized procedure and destination pages, supported by multilingual content (English, Russian, Arabic, Norwegian, Swedish, Polish), multi-currency pricing (EUR, USD, GBP, PLN, CHF) and direct patient advisory via WhatsApp with named advisors (Klaudia, Tina).

The underlying technology is a web-based content and lead-generation platform rather than a clinical or transactional system. Distinctive components include an extensive physician-reviewed editorial library addressing patient concerns (procedure risks, recovery, costs, destination selection) and integrated medical travel insurance products (Clinic Hunter Cover, Medical Shield, Insurance EU, Insurance UK) underwritten in partnership with SchengenProtect.com to satisfy Schengen visa requirements. GDPR compliance is maintained under Polish limited liability structure (VAT PL 5213719700, REGON 363560798).

The business model is transaction-based: Clinic Hunter earns a commission on the treatment cost when patients book procedures through the platform, with patients paying clinics directly and Clinic Hunter receiving a referral commission. The platform also runs an explicit B2B Lead Generation service that recruits clinics via an "Add Clinic" application to receive international patient enquiries. The company is bootstrapped, privately held, and operates with a lean 1–10 person team, with no disclosed institutional investors or external funding rounds.
