Benefits of Medical Tourism to Tijuana, Mexico

In 2017, more than 1.4 million Americans sought medical services outside of the United States, according to the American Journal of Medicine. At Tijuana Bariatrics, we offer a wide range of bariatric surgery options.

Our state-of-the-art surgical center allows patients to receive care from a board-certified surgeon at much more affordable prices than in the United States. We have advanced technology that delivers safe and affordable treatments. Read on to learn more about the benefits of medical tourism to our Tijuana, Mexico, practice.

Patients who receive care at Tijuana Bariatrics can benefit from:

Our Exceptional Care

Once you arrive at our Tijuana surgical center, you will be afforded the same high level of care that patients in the United States enjoy. Our hospital meets the same standards that hospitals in the United States have to meet, and our doctor is a board-certified surgeon.

Our surgical center treats patients as valued individuals, not customers. Your needs will be attended to promptly from the moment you arrive.

Cost-Savings

Many U.S. health insurance plans do not cover the costs associated with weight loss surgery. This can leave patients in the United States with limited options because the cost of medical care in the United States is high compared to other countries like Mexico.

Tijuana Bariatrics offers the same high standards of care as U.S. surgical centers at a significantly lower cost. Many patients who undergo surgery at our practice save several thousand dollars or more, even when airfare is factored in. Countries all around the world cater to American patients, but Tijuana’s close proximity to the United States and close cultural ties make it a convenient and welcoming choice for many medical tourists.

Safety

Tijuana Bariatrics arranges care at Hospital CER, which meets all of the safety standards of U.S. hospitals. The trained medical tourism staff of Tijuana Bariatrics arranges every aspect of your stay in Tijuana to ensure your security. Americans and Canadians have traveled to Mexico for surgical procedures for many years, with excellent results.

Transportation Service and Lodging

Our patient service team will arrange for a chauffeur service to drive you between the San Diego International Airport and the surgery center. Your recovery will be at the Marriott Hotel in Tijuana, which is known for its modern amenities and top-rate service.

A Discreet and Comfortable Recovery

Undergoing surgery in a different country allows you to discreetly recover without the need of burdening your friends and family. Recovery in the United States can require extensive hours of help from your support network. Our trained, English-speaking staff fulfills that role so you can relax without relying on the help of your friends or family.

We Are Fluent in Spanish and English

All of our staff members are fluent in Spanish and English.
