Medical tourism in Mazatlan 2026

The Coordinator was EXCELLENT! She was knowledgeable and helped me with every detail from transportation to hotel accommodations to restaurants to shopping.

Most of the staff was bilingual; however, the doctor was not so this required nursing staff translation. I would have been more comfortable if the doctor answered by questions directly versus using a translator. This was just a preference. It did not minimize the excellent treatment that was provided. I definitely plan to return for services and will be prepared by learning conversational Spanish.

Service and care provided by hospital staff was excellent.

My coordinator, Carlo, was amazing. He was prompt with answers to any questions. Surgeon, Dr Ayala was very personable and friendly. Staff at clinic was nurturing.

Maybe some post recovery snacks would have been nice.

The surgery had to be delayed because I was not feeling well right after arriving at my hotel. I came from outside Mexico for the procedure. We were able to do it a week later, and I stayed extra days for the reschedule. The staff is great and very personable. On the phone I spoke to and messaged the Doctor's personal assistant, and he speaks and writes great English. On the day of surgery, I stayed overnight following the procedure, and my night nurse had her phone set up so we could speak, translating questions, answers, and instructions back and forth. The dinner was beverages, yogurt, freshly made grilled chicken with steamed vegetables, the morning breakfast was eggs, yogurt with melon for breakfast. I stayed in a private room. I saw Dr. Aguilera right after I was prepped for surgery by the anesthesiologist and two nurses, who introduced themselves. Dr. Aguilera met me in the operating room, before I was given the final dose of sleeping medication, and was the first person I saw, still in the operating room, when emerging from anesthesia. The following day, the doctor checked my sutures and gave me some advice about what to do and not to do, the following day. He was satisfied with my recovery, so my head and neck were wrapped up for the Uber ride back to my hotel apartment. We had a stove, microwave, dishes and a full refrigerator in the room where we were staying. This is so convenient for gel packs, fresh foods and juices. I felt extremely comfortable traveling home on a three-hour flight, 10 days after the operation. Based on my experience, Plan fourteen days, giving yourselves an opportunity to settle in will make for a much more gratifying experience. Mexico City is quite easy to travel around, and since it is high altitude, the best way to adjust is to see the city or neighborhood you live in as you prepare for your procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Aguilera; I am healing well, and I am happy with the results.

The internet reception is not good on the sidewalk in front of the building, probably due to the other tall buildings. Just make sure you have made any arrangements for pick-up in the office where the wi-fi is.

This doctor is EXCELLENT. He’s certified, he’s up to date on all treatments. He is judicious and skilled at not just the Sufi al techniques but the aesthetics of the craft. His personality is calm and kind and his staff is supportive. I have had two procedures with him over these past three months and plan to make him ‘my doctor.’ Love this clinic!

Honestly, not really anything except for maybe a clearer structure of post-op recovery therapies and a liaison service or someone to help schedule them efficiently.

I was assisted from beginning to end! Great price with a great and safe experience.

I had a great experience with Dr. Marroquin and staff.

I was not given correct information about the required duration of my stay after surgery. I was also told I needed to lose a significant amount of weight after I booked the surgery and paid the deposit. I had already arranged my flights and hotel and had to reschedule because there was no possible way to lose that amount of weight in the original time frame.

I was helped from start to finish with ongoing, clear communication. I felt safe and in good hands throughout the process.

The only comment would be that the nursing staff didn’t all speak English so having a good introductory knowledge of Spanish was necessary.

The location is wonderful the staff was very attentive and I felt ike I was in good hands

Well I'm not sure what the plasmapheresis did. I felt good the first few days after the treatments. Less joint pain, slightly less swelling in my face. But now I feel just like I did before the treatments. I know I also need to do stem cells but given that insurance does not cover any of this it's tough to manage all that needs to be done because it's way more money than I can scrape together. If only regenerative medicine was covered, something that works if done close together. But instead, insurance covers the toxic stuff like steriods and immuno suppressing drugs that I am not going to do, because of the debliitating and degenerative effects of it over time. Insurance doesn't cover much for neuro auto immune conditions.
