“Medical Tourism” is a big buzzword these days! Described in Wikipedia: “Medical tourism (also called medical travel, health tourism or global healthcare) is a term initially coined by travel agencies and the mass media to describe the rapidly-growing practice of travelling across international borders to obtain health care. It also refers pejoratively to the practice of healthcare providers travelling internationally to deliver healthcare.” This can be anything from having cardiac bypass surgery to Botox to hip replacement all the way to having some minor diagnostic studies performed.
There are numerous reasons that people look to Puerto Vallarta for these types of services and procedures. (more…)

Two Upcoming Presentations!
Both begin promptly at 10:00am!
Both will be presented at O’Rourke & Associates (Plaza Marina). This is on the far south end of the Plaza. (Old Lloyds). They will validate your parking ticket.
Both are “no charge” events but we do ask that you bring one of the following items if possible:
Toothpaste, Toothbrush, Bar of soap, Baby blanket, Glue stick, Ruler or Baby booties!
(These items will go to New Life Mexico and Hospital Regional).
November 11, 2011 (Friday)
“What’s New In Cardiology”
Presenters: Dra. Leslie Swindle & Dr. Adolfo Curiel (cardiologists)
They will cover all “heart” things – new meds, new equipment, new studies – a whole bunch of things!
There will be a question and answer period.
November 16, 2011 (Wednesday)
“Everything You Need to Know About HealthCare in the Banderas Bay Area”
Insurance, hospitalization, outpatient services, emergency services, what’s new in the area, veterans services (medical) & lots more!
Pretty much anything that I can think of!
There will be a question and answer period.
Then, when we are done, we will go across the street to tour the new Amerimed Hospital.
We do prefer that you RSVP so that we are able to plan accordingly.
If you have specific questions that you would like covered, please send them on!
Thank you! Feel free to forward this to your friends!
WELCOME BACK EVERYONE!
