Medical Tourism in Mexico (visitmex)

MEXICALI, Baja California - Due to continuous growth derived from satisfying the demand for top level, affordable medical care and services, the State Secretary of Baja California (SECTURE) has named Dr. Jorge Tagle as the first Director of the Department of Medical Tourism.

Medical Tourism has established as a flourishing industry, since visitors from the United States and Canada have found in border cities like Tijuana and Mexicali (the state capital) a rapid access to highly-rated medical services. The creation of this department symbolizes also a heads-up call for other industries in the state, benefitting from patients' and their relatives' stay in the cities of Baja California while undergoing any procedure and/or receiving treatment.

"The purpose of creating this department within the State Secretary of Tourism's structure is to unify efforts by both public and private hospitals, hotels, restaurants, government agencies and related businesses and entities in order to improve every patient's experience when visiting us", said Dr. Jorge Tagle, head of Medical Tourism.
