ISO 27799 certification

Our company will be launching products in the 'health data' space in the coming months, and (in GDPR parlance) will be both 'data processor' and 'data controller' depending on context. We're looking at ISO certification and would like to know whether ISO27799 is a good fit, and if so, what documentation to purchase from whom. There are so many toolkits and templates being offered, some must surely be better suited than others.
