Overview

Supported by the leading healthcare facilities of Monterrey, Mexico, the Patients Beyond Borders® research and editorial team worked with MHC to produce this 144-page, fully digital guidebook, which offers an in-depth overview of Monterrey’s leading American-accredited hospitals, selected health travel agents, accommodations, and essential medical travel information for the international patient. Monterrey now boasts four JCI-accredited hospitals within its city limits—half the JCI hospitals in Mexico—plus an array of private international specialty hospitals and clinics. Readers will learn about Monterrey’s commitment to healthcare (including three first-rate medical schools: Tecnologico de Monterrey, Universidad de Monterrey, and the new Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo Leon) and why thousands of medical travelers are making the short trip across the border to Monterrey for medical procedures, including cosmetic surgery, dentistry, bariatrics/weight management, IVF/reproductive services, orthopedics, cardiology, cancer treatments, and more.
