This morning we went to the hospital to shoot footage for the travel documentary my dad is working on – “Travel Secrets Mexico“. Having never been to a hospital in Mexico we didn’t know what to expect but we were pleasantly surprised to say the least. I don’t believe I have ever been to such a clean and nice facility in the US!
Mike interviewed the medical director and the chief administrator of the hospital. It was his first on-camera interview and I think he finally found his calling in life. 😉 There were only a few patients today, so I played the part of CT Scanner patient.

| All patient rooms have a single bed with a private bath. Some even have attached rooms with couches for the family. |
And here is the segment about the hospital
And, what do you look like inside, after you have been through the CT scanner?
I have read somewhere, years ago, how much better the hospitals in Mexico are, providing you have the money, and in any case it is much cheaper there then it is in the US.
We are going most of the time to Mexico for the Dentist.
LOL. They didn’t actually scan me. We talked to a patient who had been there for four days for a case of food poisoning and his bill was up to 10,000 pesos (that’s about US$800 for FOUR DAYS!). I’m going to the dentist soon and will report. Good to hear from you!
It’s very nice! The view is much better than any hospital I’ve ever been to. LOL.
