Wellness Travel Advisor, Courtney Burnett, Founder of Lotus Wellness Travel, Physician and  Wellness Travel Advisor

This isn’t just a business - it’s personal.

I started Lotus Wellness Travel, a boutique physician-founded travel advisory because I believe safety, dignity, and beautiful experiences can exist in the same itinerary.

Lotus Wellness Travel is designed for all people — with or without health-related accessibility needs. It’s a travel platform designed to thoughtfully curate safe, personalized travel experiences with everyone’s unique needs in mind.

As a cancer survivor and physician, I understand the “what ifs” of travel both professionally and personally. I’ve traveled after brain surgery and navigated unexpected health scares far from home. I’ve been there, and those experiences shape how I plan trips for others.

I’ve been hospitalized in Thailand and coordinated a medical flight home through travel insurance. This was a challenging, but also hilarious process.

I’ve been stranded in another state without access to prescription medication and realized how overwhelming that would feel without a medical license that allowed me to refill my own Rx.

I’ve navigated rabies exposure decisions after a close call with a very cute dog in Nepal. Yes, I always pet the stray dogs…No, I do not medically recommend this!

I’ve designed safe experiences for my own solo travel with access to private drivers, medical care, and contingency plans in multiple countries.

Lotus Wellness Travel is a wellness and accessible travel advisory service built by a physician, but designed for everyone.

If you are someone interested in travel but hesitant to do so, I want to help. If you are concerned about traveling solo, finding medical care abroad, picking the right travel insurance, facing jet lag, pacing to maintain energy, dealing with mobility limitations, or simply want someone else to take the work of planning off your busy schedule, LWT is for you.

I love to plan trips. I truly love to make itineraries, meticulously research costs, read endless hotel reviews, and curate experiences to make people smile. I do this for my family and friends. I want to do this for others too!
