Thank you - my mom joined me. She is a retired nurse. I was really just planning on heading down alone, but I had too many co-workers and friends freak out that I invited her just to shut them up. It was worth the frequent flyer miles.

Dr. Jose Rodriguez Villarreal at the Star Medica. The people were very nice, biggest hang up was getting the shuttle. The cab union leader is friends with the cops union there and they keep giving him a rough time about where he can park when he's picking up people.

The facility is good. I was wondering why there rates of infection were so much lower there than in the US. I figured it out when I arrived. Huge room. No roommate. They mop the place every hour. Not as much equipment in the room as there is in the average American hospital, so their are fewer surfaces to clean. My friend's wife had barbaric surgery a few years ago in the US, and her she did get a horrible site infection, not from the procedure but from the facility.
