I had my surgery last year in Juarez. I wouldn't worry about the violence. You ride from the airport straight to the hospital and back.

I think you are right in having your fears of traveling to Juarez. There are no guarantees and the doctor or hospital will not guarantee your safety. I considered it very seriously because of the savings but in my head I couldn't get past the news reports.

I've heard amazing things about Dr. Kelly in Tijuana. You could give him some research. His cost was $5,300 when I checked into using him.

THANKS FOR UR ADVICE

I live in TX and yes all the border towns here are scary . I had a friend go with Dr.Rod and love love loves him and she felt safe the entire time. Just dont go out running around the hospital is safe . You will be fine just play it safe . I am useing Dr.Kelly as well but that was just my choice I would have crossed in TX to use dr kelly if I would have needed to I would have prefered to cross TX borders being a Texan myself

Hi i just got home this past wensday from there i had surgery with him too i was nervous just like you but everything was fine i didnt see anything happen i even walked across the street and went to the mall and the mall is just as nice as the hospital so dont worry you will be fine.
