BridgeHealth has assembled the most extensive provider network in the medical travel industry, with over 25 hospitals and 600 physicians, dentists and health professionals in more than 12 countries – and growing. The network of accredited facilities and world-class practitioners—the World-Class Provider Network™—allows you to take advantage of the benefits of medical travel without the uncertainties and guesswork. Every aspect of our society is moving toward a global marketplace, and medicine is no exception. Increasingly, people are traveling abroad for high-quality medical care that offers immediate service and access to procedures that may not be available locally.
Obesity problems
We all know that dieting, behaviour modification, weight loss drugs, supplements and medications have had limited success rates with long term weight loss.
Obesity can take an enormous psychological toll on those who suffer from excess weight as obese individuals deal with repeated failures with dieting, limited access to public conveniences, prejudice and even ridicule.
The rate of depression in the morbidly obese is ten times that of the non-obese population. Obese individuals often face discrimination at work. This unfair reality can affect being hired for a job, getting a promotion and it can skew perceptions about overall job performance.
Weight loss surgery in Mexico
As with many other goods and services, the global marketplace has given rise to competition. Within the healthcare universe the result as been the creation of a three dimensional reality for consumers when traveling internationally for medical services: a rise in higher quality care; dramatic cost-savings; and a level of superior service and patient experience.
Last year it was estimated that over 1,000 U.S patients went abroad for bariatric weight loss surgery that included The Lap-Band® System, Gastric Bypass, Gastric Sleeve and Gastric Balloon Insertion (GBI).
Mexico, long a favoured vacation getaway, is home to a friendly culture, comforting pace and the opportunity for many high quality procedures.
