Don’t Wait In Pain Any Longer, Come to Monterrey, Mexico For A Quality and Affordable Orthopedic Surgery
Monterrey, Mexico, September 22nd, 2009
As the numbers for the medically uninsured in the United States are steadily increasing, the same rise can be seen in the Medical Travel trend. Nowadays, Americans and Canadians are no longer reaching out overseas only for elective procedures such as breast augmentation and rhinoplasty, but also for more complex surgeries which require immediate and high quality medical attention.
Of these complex surgeries, a variety of orthopedic procedures are being highly sought after by individuals seeking treatment abroad. As a primary Medical Travel destination, Monterrey, Mexico counts with internationally accredited hospitals and top-notch doctors that are increasingly treating foreign patients for everything ranging from plastic surgery to cancer. Gabriel Senior, CEO of Travel for Care, a leading local medical travel facilitator states that “ I have heard so many stories of Americans and Canadians putting off their much needed orthopedic surgeries either because of long waiting lists, or because of the inability to pay. I want them to know that they have another option. In Monterrey, Mexico and you will have access to the best orthopedic surgeons at less than half the cost of the U.S and we won’t put you on a waiting list.”
Dr. José Fernando De La Garza, MD is founder of the ORTHO group of orthopedic surgeons at Hospital San Jose TEC de Monterrey. “We have a team of internationally-trained specialists and state-of-the-art technology which allows us to offer high quality orthopedic care, but at just a fraction of the U.S cost.” he mentions. Top orthopedic care in Monterrey is between a third and a fourth of that in the U.S. For example, a knee replacement surgery which usually costs $40,000 in the U.S. is only $12,400 in the top notch, Joint Commission International-accredited Hospital San Jose TEC. Aside from this common orthopedic procedure, many other specialties are also offered, including: knee, shoulder, and ankle arthroscopies, hip replacement and resurfacing, lumbar laminectomy, osteotomy, and knee meniscectomy. A city which not many Americans and Canadians are familiar with today is on track to provide one of the solutions sought by them during their different, albeit difficult health crises.
Hospital San José TEC de Monterrey is one of Monterrey's best regarded healthcare institutions, accredited by the Joint Commission International, and part of the Monterrey TEC, Mexico's largest private education system. For more information, please visit www.hsj.com.mx
