Surgery Abroad

Is It Safe to Have Surgery Abroad? Only If You Choose a Certified Agency Like MMV

How My Medical Vacations protects patients from risk—and delivers life-changing results with trust, transparency, and surgical excellence.

For every person seriously considering medical travel, there’s one question sitting at the center of it all:

Is it safe?”

And it should be.
Because you’re not booking a vacation. You’re booking your body, your future, your health.

At My Medical Vacations (MMV), we don’t avoid that question.
We answer it—with evidence, process, and results.
Because your peace of mind isn’t optional—it’s everything.

The Truth: Medical Travel Is Safe—But Only When Done Right

Every year, thousands of patients across the U.S. and Canada turn to medical tourism out of necessity:

  • They can’t afford surgery at home
  • They’re stuck on year-long waitlists
  • Their insurance won’t cover the care they need
  • They’re ready for change, but don’t trust their options

And that’s where they hit the wall:

“Can I really trust a clinic in Mexico?”
“What if something goes wrong?”
“What if they promise one thing and deliver another?”

These aren’t paranoid questions. They’re smart ones.

But the answer is simple:

Yes, it can be safe—when you go with a team that treats your life like it matters.

What Makes MMV Different From “Cheap Clinics” or Cut-Rate Brokers?

Everything.

MMV is not a middleman.
We are a fully established, award-winning medical coordination agency with 15+ years of experience, headquartered in Cancun and trusted by over 5,000+ international patients.

Our job is to:

✔️ Protect you from unqualified providers
✔️ Vet every surgeon, hospital, and nurse we recommend
✔️ Coordinate every piece of your medical journey—from lab work to lodging
✔️ Provide 24/7 bilingual support while you recover in Mexico
✔️ Follow up when you return home

We aren’t booking volume. We’re managing lives.

Why “Going Direct” Can Be Risky—Even With a Reputable Doctor

A surgeon’s credentials might be solid.
But who’s reviewing your labs?
Who’s checking your travel timeline for safety?
Who’s coordinating post-op nursing care, airport transfers, language barriers, hotel sanitation, and your medications?

Who’s in your corner if something doesn’t go as planned?

When you travel without an agency like MMV, you’re your own coordinator, patient advocate, translator, and risk manager.
And when you’re in pain or recovering from surgery, that’s a dangerous job to take on.

MMV’s Safety Protocols—Built to International Standards

We’re not just “safe.” We’re strategic, meticulous, and transparent.

Here’s how we protect your health at every stage:

1. Pre-Qualification Screening

We review your health history, medications, BMI, photos, and lab work before you ever get on a plane. If you’re not a candidate, we’ll tell you.

2. Board-Certified Surgeons Only

Every specialist we work with is board-certified in Mexico, with thousands of documented procedures, advanced training, and a verified track record.

3. Accredited Hospitals and Surgical Suites

No clinics in back alleys.
You’ll receive care in modern, clean, internationally accredited facilities—on par with U.S. standards.

4. Bilingual Post-Op Support & On-the-Ground Coordination

You’ll never be left guessing.
From the moment you land in Mexico, MMV handles your transportation, check-in, pre-op consultations, medications, meals, and recovery lodging.

We assign a dedicated coordinator and offer real-time help 24/7.

5. No Hidden Costs. No Surprise Changes.

Everything is quoted up front.
We work on package pricing, which means no price creep, no last-minute fees, and no surprise bills. Period.

Real Patients. Real Safety. Real Results.
