People Tell Me That I Won't Receive Quality Health Care In Mexico Because Their Standards Are Not Up To Par With U.S. Standards. Is That True?
With many physicians from the U.S. having received their training in Mexico, and with many Mexican doctors having received at least part of their training in the United States, the quality of Mexican health care has been reported to be comparable to that in the United States: “in general, health care in Mexico is very good and in many places it is excellent.” Lower medical costs than the U.S. have been found to bear no relationship to the quality of medical attention and knowledge about health care provided in Mexico. Mexican hospitals are equipped to first world standards, use modern equipment and hygiene and many Mexican doctors received their training in the US. When it comes to diagnosis and treatment, Americans receiving treatment in Mexico say it is just as good as in the United States – and sometimes better.
