WHY MEDTOGO INTERNATIONAL?

MedToGo: The leading source of healthcare information to Mexico for North Americans since 2000

Simply put, when it comes to Medical Tourism in Mexico, there is no North American company with the credibility, reputation, and experience of MedToGo.

Our physicians and health care coordinators have extensive, hands on experience working with doctors and hospitals throughout Mexico. We began developing our network of Mexico’s finest doctors and hospitals in 2000 by conducting personal interviews and educational background checks on more than 700 Mexican doctors and inspecting over 80 private hospitals. We spent 6 years researching the Mexican healthcare system before we referred our first patient for surgery in February of 2006. As a result, if you decide to let MedToGo coordinate your surgery or medical service in Mexico, you can be assured that you will be working with the country’s finest doctors and institutions.

You will have also hired a team of U.S. physicians and health care and coordinators that will oversee your care and serve as your advocate while you are in Mexico. You will not be alone. Unlike other cheap gall bladder removal surgery solutions, your safety and peace of mind are our primary concern. Furthermore, we can offer you complete healthcare packages with up to 75% off the price of a comparable experience in the U.S.-without a compromise in quality.

HOW WE SELECT DOCTORS TO OUR PROGRAM

While we have made it our mission to carefully select the most qualified and experienced physicians in Mexico, we leave the final decision in the hands of the patient. You will have options. With detailed profiles of physicians and medical facilities, you will have all the essential information you need to make informed decisions.

  • Our physicians meet and hold personal interviews with all Mexican physicians.
  • We verify the doctor’s educational experience and credentials, including board certification and licensing.
  • We request and check professional references and assess a doctor’s local reputation through various professional and personal resources. Doctors must be in good standing with their community and hospitals. There must be no history of current or repeated legal malpractice.
  • We review physician resumés and give preference to physicians who have been consistent with continuing medical education, who are active in their medical societies and who have been entrusted with leadership roles within their institutions.
  • We examine evidence of their surgical success rates.
  • Prior to including a surgeon or physician into our program, we attend his/her operations to evaluate competence and skill.

YOUR COST

You do not pay extra to work with MedToGo. Were you to go directly to the same doctor to schedule the surgery, the cost of your gall bladder removal surgery would be the same as if you were to coordinate it through MedToGo.

But if you hire MedToGo we will not only provide you with a selection of Mexico’s finest health care providers and coordinate your procedure, we will also be your advocates while you are abroad and not rest until have returned home.

Your Mexican hospital and doctor compensates MedToGo for marketing services, and MedToGo does not add additional fees to the cost of your package. MedToGo does not accept cash incentives or alterations in compensation from physicians or hospitals. This ensures that our recommendations are unbiased and based solely on our experience and quality assessment.

TESTIMONIALS

Since the birth of my middle son, which was 22 years ago, I’ve been bothered by my gallbladder. I was hospitalized once for 8 days while the doctors got the inflation under control thru medication and diet. As the years passed by my gallbladder began to bother me more and more to the point that I couldn’t sleep on my right side and my activity level decreased until I was sedentary.

Every time I went to the doctor, they would examine me and tell me that the gallstones were not large enough to warrant surgery. At that time I had HMO Insurance. Now at this time in my life I have no insurance and of course my gallbladder was still bothering me. Afraid that a stone could unlodge and go into the duct and then into my liver I decided to research having the surgery out of this country.

I interviewed several businesses that did medical tourism and settled on MedToGo. They gave me personal attention and satisfied all my concerns and the price was right.

For my surgery I chose to have the surgery down in Puerto Vallarta at the Cornerstone Hospital with Dr. Velazquez. The hospital was very clean and each patient has their own room. I was treated like a queen. Dr. Robert Page and his son Robert met me at the hospital to make sure everything was in order. Dr. Velazquez and most of the nurses spoke English but it was nice having Dr. Page interpret for me since I speak broken Spanish which made me feel more comfortable. I went down there by myself, Dr. Page and Robert were a great support system.

Dr. Flores told me after surgery that my gallbladder was completely impacted with fine sand. I am now pain free and I can sleep on my right side for the first time in years.

The doctors in Mexico are highly educated and Mexico is beautiful and affordable. I would highly recommend MedToGo.
