Boasting a reputation for providing a wealth of services at half the cost in other countries such as dental care, cosmetic and plastic surgical procedures, hip replacement and more, medical travelers can anticipate saving up to 50% on medical procedure costs in Mexico, without the lengthy wait times for appointments or surgery in the U.S. or Canada and throughout western Europe.

Mexico has become one of the most popular medical tourist destinations for many Americans and Canadians, as well as travelers from other countries. Mexico enjoys some of the most modern and technologically advanced facilities in the world, including the Almater Hospital and Mexicali Obesity Solutions.

Providing highly trained and experienced surgeons and physicians in fields of cosmetic dentistry, cancer treatment, cosmetic plastic surgery treatment and cosmetic surgery procedures, fertility treatment centers, and Lasik eye clinic care. Mexico is a popular destination for bariatric weight loss surgery, including lap banding, laparoscopic gastric banding, obesity surgery centers, obesity gastric bypass surgery, and other forms of laparoscopic obesity surgery.

Mexico is also a leading destination providing treatment for chronic disease treatment abroad, chronic inflammatory disease processes, and chronic lower respiratory disease processes utilizing a variety of technologies such as those utilized by Advanced Medical Group or including cord blood stem cell therapy, hematopoietic stem cell therapy, and umbilical cord stem cell therapy in facilities such as Integra Medical and ProgenCell.

Mexico is a leader in providing certified, accredited and affordable health care abroad in a large number of medical fields through experienced and highly trained medical providers, just a few of the benefits of traveling to Mexico for healthcare needs.

North Carolina recently joined a number of other states to enact a cord blood education law, which helps departments of Health and Human Services educate the public regarding the preservation and future use of umbilical cord blood stem cells. Among others, the law ‘encourages’ physicians to make such information available to all pregnant parents so they can make informed decisions on  private or public blood banking systems.

The benefit of umbilical cord blood stem cells is vital when a child is faced with a medical illness or diseases. Since the placenta and umbilical cord have traditional been discarded, finding these cells increase the chances of survival when an individual is faced with cancers, blood diseases or other ailments.

Millions of parents have frozen and store their baby’s umbilical cord blood, and their numbers are growing. Stem cell research and development is entering an exciting era, and it is hoped that someday soon, multiple treatments for formerly incurable illnesses and disease processes will be discovered, making storage of umbilical cord blood stem cells invaluable.

Facilities such as EmCell in Ukraine and Integra Medical Center and ProgenCell in Mexico treat patients with a variety of stem cell therapies, including umbilical cord blood stem cell and placenta stem cell therapies.

Umbilical cord blood can be collected after either a cesarean or traditional birth. To collect the blood, parents must supply a cord blood kit which they can get from the cord blood bank where they will be storing the cells. In the event of a traditional birth, the umbilical cord is clamped from both ends and cut. An experienced nurse or obstetrician is often able to collect cord blood even before the placenta is delivered. To gather the cord blood, a small tube is inserted into the umbilical vein and collected, and then additional needles are placed within the delivered placenta to gather more valuable blood and cells.

Today, stem cell research offers potential treatments for the future that may cure many disease processes, enable people with spinal cord injuries to walk again, and perhaps even see an end to cognitive impairment diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease.

The most commonly studied and used stem cell therapies today involve the use of:

• Embryonic stem cell therapy
• Adult stem cell therapy and research
• Umbilical cord stem cell therapy
• Placenta stem cell therapy

Adult stem cell therapy - This type of stem cell is taken from bone marrow. Adult stem cells can be “instructed” to form a certain type of cell – such as nerve cells, cardiac cells, skin cells, muscle cells and so forth. Stem cell replacement therapy is undergoing extensive research and development.

Umbilical cord stem cell therapy - As a rich source of stem cells, many parents today are “banking” their children’s umbilical cord cells in case they are needed for curing disease in the future. Cord blood stem cell therapy is making huge advancements today.

Placenta Stem Cell Therapy – Stem cell therapy research doctors have been studying the beneficial components of stem cells found within the placenta. The afterbirth, heretofore discarded after birth, is now being studied for its multipotent stem cells in the search for treatments of multiple illnesses and disease processes.

Affordable stem cell therapy is offered in many foreign medical travel destinations such as Thailand, Asia, and the Ukraine in Central Europe.
