You need a surgical procedure. You also need a vacation. In both cases, money is tight. Usually this means that the surgery will take priority and you will sacrifice your stress level and need to take a break to have whatever is necessary done. Stress will accumulate as you realize that health care costs are going through the roof, and whatever peace of mind you need to help recuperate from your procedure will require an enormous amount of effort.
Many people are in this situation, but are finding that with a trip that combines an essential surgery with a vacation, with money to burn, is not only ideal, but possible! There are more and more countries opening up to foreigners where diagnostics and procedures are every bit as professional and cutting edge as those at home. Affordable knee surgery is now possible in places like Mexico, Costa Rica, and India. Shoulder surgery costs are up to 50% lower in these countries as well, with surgeons educated in the U.S. and Canada attending in the state-of-the-art hospitals that sit on some of the most beautiful sites in the world. Heart surgery in places such as Cabo San Lucas in Mexico allow patients to recover after their procedure and then enjoy an exquisite white sandy beach nearby.
The options are there. With a small amount of research, you can find a medical tourism agency that will help you locate exactly what you need, expedite your medical records, X-rays, and any other information necessary, and book your reservations.
