About the clinic
Gastroscopy with biopsy at Zafir Medical Center in Huixquilucan, Mexico, provides a detailed examination of the upper digestive tract.

Diagnostic Technology and Standards
Zafir Medical Center holds a COFEPRIS license, which confirms the facility meets Mexican national health standards for medical practices. The clinic operates as a private facility specializing in coordinated, short-stay patient care for diagnostic screenings. The use of high-resolution imaging equipment helps the medical team view the lining of the digestive tract with clarity.
- Upper GI examination. The procedure checks the health of the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine.
- FUJIFILM Full HD towers. These imaging systems provide high-resolution visual data during the examination.
- On-site biopsy. The specialist can take tissue samples directly during the gastroscopy to confirm a diagnosis.
- Integrated diagnostics. Patients receive a full assessment of their upper digestive tract in a single session.
- Regulated facility. The clinic maintains permit 243300201A2222 issued by the local health authority.

Gynecology and Women's Health
The gynecology department treats conditions such as uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts. Surgeons perform myomectomy to remove fibroids while preserving the uterus. For advanced cases, specialists offer abdominal, vaginal, or laparoscopic hysterectomies. The team also includes reproductive biology and infertility specialists for patients seeking fertility support.
Orthopedics
The orthopedic unit focuses on joint injuries and cartilage wear. Surgeons use arthroscopy for the knee and shoulder to treat ligament tears or persistent inflammation. These procedures use small incisions, so tissue trauma is reduced. The clinic also offers osteosynthesis services for patients who need surgical implants or hardware.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The clinic uses imaging and surgical platforms to support intraoperative accuracy. A Philips Arco en C provides real-time image guidance during major procedures. Surgeons use full-HD laparoscopic towers for abdominal and gynecological surgeries.
The diagnostic unit handles several internal examinations:
- FUJIFILM endoscopy and colonoscopy towers
- Mammography with tomosynthesis for breast cancer screening
- Transvaginal and abdominal ultrasound
- Digital dermoscopy for mole mapping
For recovery, the center has a medical hyperbaric chamber. This technology boosts oxygen levels in the blood to speed tissue repair.
