The Tijuana Advantage

The largest and most important city in Northwest Mexico counts on an enviable location from which to serve the US and Canadian Medical Travel market. Being just across the border from San Diego, California, it is driving distance to more than twelve million people in Southern California, Arizona, and Nevada. It also benefits from having the San Diego International Airport just twenty minutes away, with its frequent and inexpensive flights that can bring patients from virtually anywhere in North America. The city is also known for great weather, with mild summers and winters, and a constant pacific breeze. It has lately become a fevorite destination for medical travelers looking for affordable healthcare options very close to all western US cities. A well developed medical travel industry caters to the more than 10,000 Americans crossing the border every year for medical and dental precedures at affordable prices.

 


Emmanuel Medical - Jerusalem Hospital

The Clinic

The latest venture of an American healthcare entrepreneur with more than a decade of experience in the field, is a weight loss and plastic surgery clinic located in Tijuana called Hospital Jerusalem. A wise use of resources and a very efficient model allow them to offer very attractive prices across the board while maintaining high quality standards. The facility and guesthouses are simple, but the client service team offers patients very close and personalized care from the moment they are picked up in San Diego, right until they’re OK’d to be sent back home. The nice sense of community created by the usually more than five foreign patients and their families residing in the clinic or guesthouse at any given time is probably the most favorable of Emmanuel’s attributes.
