Why Puerto Vallarta is better than Tijuana for Gastric Sleeve Surgery
If you have already made the decision to have a Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Mexico, the next decision is where to go for your surgery? Many people choose Tijuana for their weight loss surgery not realizing that there is a better option, a safer option, and that is Puerto Vallarta Mexico. People always first think about Tijuana because it is on the border, but in reality, Puerto Vallarta is not only safer from a crime point of view, but you can also make a real vacation out of your surgery vacation. By choosing Puerto Vallarta for your weight loss surgery destination, not only do you save money over having surgery in the USA but you get the best care, world-class hospitals and one of Mexico’s leading bariatric surgeons all in one location, the CMQ Riviera Nayarit hospital and with Dr. Jorge Arturo Parra.
Most people don’t know that Puerto Vallarta is a tropical paradise and one of the leading destinations for Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Mexico. Puerto Vallarta has an International airport which makes your arrival and departure very easy. Not only do you fly directly into the airport and get to your hotel within 15 minutes of leaving the airport, but on the way home, you just go to your flight and check-in avoiding the hassles of hour-long border waits while you sit in a vehicle in the Tijuana border, not to mention that Puerto Vallarta is located far away from the dangerous border violence that often affects the city of Tijuana where the drug cartels are continually fighting amongst themselves and this leads to a more dangerous environment for patients who choose to go to Tijuana rather than Puerto Vallarta. Puerto Vallarta also has accessible flights from many main cities in the USA and Canada. Moreover, the Puerto Vallarta Airport (PVR) is located only 10 minutes away from beach view hotels and world-class hospitals.
Tijuana is a large congested and dangerous city because it happens to be one of the major border town crossings used by the drug cartels in Mexico. Criminals flock to the city to take advantage of the Mexicans or Central American people who daily are trying to cross the border into the USA and also due to its strategic location with entry into California. It is true that Tijuana has a large number of bariatric surgeons, clinics and low-cost hospitals that are more clinics than real hospitals. Also, many weight loss surgeries are performed in Tijuana but the conditions that exist are not really what Americans or Canadians expect nor really deserve. Some doctors to cut the cost of surgery perform surgeries in clinics called hospitals, place patients in reclining chairs post-surgery instead of in hospital beds and also purchase medical supplies that do not come directly from the manufacturer. Tijuana is dangerous also because if there are complications doctors have been known to ship the patient to the US border and leave them at the border making the border guards then transfer them to a local US hospital at the expense of these poor patients. There are also doctors who have become infamous for complications and lawsuits and in Tijuana, you really do get what you pay for. It is very important for patients to carefully evaluate the pros and cons of going to Tijuana which in the short term may seem to be a lower cost option but in reality, if there are complications or you choose the wrong facility you may be risking your life to save a few hundred dollars.
