About Us

Quality Healthcare, Wherever You Go
In 2017, Helena and Manuel had a vision to create a resource for travelers. In their previous positions they had cared for travelers in medical emergencies and had the desire to take out the fear and uncertainty from unforeseen vacation healthcare needs. It has been their dedication which continues to help us strive for excellence in efficiency and professionalism for our clients around the world.
We have partnered with clinics and hospitals in Portugal, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, and Brazil to offer comprehensive services for residents or anyone who travels to these locations.
Since the inception, our services have continued to expand to include facilitating emergency training for healthcare professionals and thereby contributing to improving the quality of healthcare.
We will continue to nurture our passion of providing healthcare assistance so you can continue your passion for traveling.
While visiting Cape Verde I became extremely ill and was concerned I may not complete my trip. My insurance contacted Viscura Internacional, they were so understanding of my needs and connected me with the right specialist and clinic that provided very efficient and attentive care. I recovered quickly and was able to continue my amazing trip.

While I was visiting Angola, I became ill and my travel insurance contacted Viscura Internacional. They were very competent and professional in helping me with my medical needs, and I knew I had a strong advocate for my needs. I felt supported during the entire process even after my health was restored.

As a Biology student doing graduate work in a very remote area of Mozambique, I had a medical issue and needed immediate care. As my travel insurance contacted Viscura Internacional, I was put at ease that they spoke my language and had a complete grasp of the best care options for me. They took care of everything from referrals, bills and reimbursements, including personal follow-up.

While working for my company abroad, in Brazil, I contracted a serious disease. The initial care I received did not improve by situation. I contacted my insurance to request a change and that is when Viscura Internacional became involved. After a good assessment they transferred and coordinated my care for proper diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. All my questions and concerns were promptly responded to and all aspects were taken care of including assisting my wife as she received information of my care in our home country.

As I visited Portugal, I had a fall and broke my tooth. I contacted Viscura and was directed to the perfect dental care near where I was with a schedule that fit my itineraries and I was able to continue my journey with my problem solved.

While on vacation, I had a fall from the boat and severely hurt my back, with a need
of emergency surgery. I was at the hospital for almost two weeks without any improvement. We tried everything, including contacting our embassy. It was not till Viscura was involved that my condition improved. They were able to address our needs and concerns, helped the hospital obtain the directions and needed compliance for my surgery. It was a relief to get the assistance of the Viscura Team. I do recommend their services.
