Satisfied American Patient Spreads the Word about Medical Travel Facilitator Travel For Care
Monterrey, Mexico January 2010
Aaron Clark, the first of many southern Texans looking for the highest quality eye-care available south of the border, recently arrived to Monterrey, Mexico with the excitement of finally receiving his long awaited Lasik procedure. Arriving by bus from McAllen, Texas with his mother and sister, they were welcomed at the bus station by Travel For Care’s owner Gabriel Senior. Aaron stated “right from the beginning we were incredibly impressed by the personalized attention we received from Travel For Care, not only did they arrange everything for us, but we were met at the bus station and taken directly to our hotel by the company’s owner.” The next day, Aaron received his PRK treatment by world renowned ophthalmologist Dr. Jesus Vidaurri, and later stated “I spent time researching my options abroad and came to the conclusion that I wanted the very best, and that is why I chose Dr. Vidaurri at Hospital San José”.


As Medical Travel continues to gain attention from U.S. and Canadian patients who are looking for high quality low-cost healthcare, Travel For Care, a Medical Travel facilitator who originally began offering a very thorough, Monterrey based network of specialists and hospitals is now looking to expand its network of providers to better serve patients in locations from which Monterrey is not the most accessible healthcare hub. Located just two hours south of Laredo, Texas and reachable by non-stop flights from more than seven U.S. cities, Monterrey is perfectly located to assist North American patients with all types of treatments ranging from plastic surgery to life-saving heart surgery. However, less invasive procedures such as dental and vision care can be offered to the south Texas population in the best clinics of Nuevo Laredo and Reynosa without the extra two hour drive. A similar case applies to Southern Californian patients, whose options in nearby Tijuana are location wise more attractive than comparable providers in Mexico’s East Coast.
Although fairly unknown to the general public, “palmar hyperhidrosis”, also known as sweaty palms, is a condition suffered by many. This disorder can cause such an increased amount of sweat on the hands that handling objects or shaking hands with another person becomes awkward and difficult and worst of all, can lead a person down a path toward social phobia if not treated. The good news however, is those patients who suffer from this debilitating disorder do have a surgical option. Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy is a surgery that has been widely performed to treat hyperhidrosis and facial blushing and has achieved excellent results.
