75 Year-Old Patient comes to Monterrey for an Affordable Facelift
Monterrey, June 17th, 2010
Medical travel is growing at full speed in Mexico. As Americans and Canadians are more commonly seen walking the aisles of the country’s best hospitals and clini
cs than ever before, the trend has been catching everyone’s eye. However, when we begin to see even 75 year-olds coming to Monterrey for plastic surgery, it means that this trend is here to stay.


Even if the Medical Travel industry in Mexico caters to Americans and Canadians on the look for inexpensive Weight Loss Surgeries, the market is demanding even more affordable options. Always on top of the curve, Travel For Care delivers. Low cost, all-inclusive options for Gastric Band and Gastric Sleeve Surgeries are now offered in Monterrey for $5,400 and $6,600 respectively.
Continuing the trend of specialization in healthcare, with which generalist practices are giving way to highly focused and specialized practices that better diagnose and treat patients, Travel For Care has included in its network the Monterrey Spine Clinic.
As globalization is having an impact on almost every aspect of life, Healthcare had until very recently been overlooked by this 21st century trend. However, shortened distances, faster travel, and better telecommunications have made previously unthought-of actions like having a second opinion from a doctor far away, or traveling abroad for a less expensive surgery much easier and common. As citizens now have more options to get diagnosed and treated far from home, the only issue becomes information, coordination, and who to count on as a guide in this process.
