Medical Tourism in Mexico: Your Guide to Clinic Visits & Diagnostic Services
From Medications to Imaging: Navigating Appointments for Bloodwork, X-rays, and More - PT.1
Medical tourism in Mexico has gained a lot of traction in recent years. It started with people simply going on vacation to beach towns and buying stuff at local pharmacies. Now it's morphed into entire industries where third parties have packages for clients to come across the border, get treatments, and go back home. In some cases, even insurance companies are taking patients across the border to fill prescriptions.
This day and age a lot of people want to take control of their own health but are extremely limited by their countries s’s system.
Others are simply already living in Mexico and want to learn to navigate the system a little bit
Living in Mexico for multiple years, I personally don't think you need to hire a third party to do any of this.
