Laparoscopic surgical procedures are the cutting edge of medical technology in the 21st century.  Less invasive surgical techniques and procedures utilizing laparoscopic surgery enable patients to heal faster, reduce the risk of infection, and cause less tissue damage and resulting complications. Laparoscopic surgery is also known as keyhole surgery or minimally invasive surgery (MIS).  The technique enables surgeons to view, access and remove sections or entire organs through very small incisions.

For example, laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive technique that has been perfected in the past two decades that enables surgeons to surgically repair or remove organs in the body through small incisions that result in fewer complications, surrounding tissue damage and faster healing times.  A gallbladder removal procedure is called a cholecystectomy. Other popular laparoscopic procedures include:

• Appendectomy (removal of the appendix)
• Laparoscopically Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH)
• Bariatric gastric bypass surgeries
• Cancer treatment
• Fibroids

Patients undergoing laparoscopic surgical procedures may enjoy savings of tens of thousands of dollars in hospital care costs due to shortened hospital stay time. In the United States for example, the cost of laparoscopic gallbladder removal averages about $3,000 to $8,000 but lab costs and anesthesiology and hospital stay may leave patients with a bill of  approximately $25,000 to $50,000 depending on geographical location.

Medical tourists traveling to destinations such as Makewell Meditour in India or Laparoscopic Solutions in Coahuila, Mexico, as well as facilities in Thailand and  Turkey may save up to 50-70% on the costs of laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery and hospital stays in the United States. In various locations in Mexico and Costa Rica, international travelers may purchase packages for laparoscopic surgery that average between $4,500 to $6,000, including hospital stay, transportation and lab work.

With a new year almost upon us, many of us are thinking about health and wellness and that goes for preventive care against common cancers like breast cancer, prostate and colon cancer, among others. Unfortunately, many diagnosed with cancer are faced with staggering drug costs, even though some of those drugs, especially Avastin, has shown great promise in treatment of breast cancer.

 

Some of the costs for cancer care may be absorbed by Medicare or private insurance, but still leaves patients dealing with debt in the amount of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Still, breast cancer treatments are suggested and encouraged for any individual who has received a diagnosis of breast cancer. When caught early enough, today’s therapies and treatments have grown increasingly successful in eradicating cancer cell growth and development, by as much as 70%.

 

Costs of biological hormone therapy treatments vary according to drug as well as the stage of cancer being treated. In the United States, price ranges for Avastin may cost up to $4,400 a month, while Herceptin costs an average of $3,000 a month.

 

In India, a year’s supply of Herceptin averages out to about $2,000 a month instead of the $3,000 a month in the U.S. In other locations such as Thailand and Singapore, medical travelers are also able to enjoy substantial savings.

 

Chemotherapy costs in the U.S. average about $500 per treatment, while comparative treatments in foreign destinations are much lower. A breast lump removal (lumpectomy) in the U.S. can cost an average of $2,500-$3,000, while such procedures can cost about $700 in India and about $1,000 in Singapore.

 

The Almater Hospital in Mexico and Makewell Meditour in India are just two of the many world-class and excellent facilities that provide cancer care abroad. When it comes to your care, cost shouldn’t be a factor.

Detoxification is a popular term used for cleaning or cleansing the body of toxic substances. Detoxification comes in many different forms and styles. Individuals who choose detoxification methods to quit smoking, drinking, to cleanse their body of toxic byproducts and wastes often enjoy untold benefits. However, individuals should use caution when engaging in popular detoxification diets, because most are extreme and may offer the body little in the way of nutritious ingredients for energy and sustenance. Understanding the different types of detoxification and what is involved will help consumers make educated decisions regarding the process.

 

Multiple forms of detoxification are available, some quite straightforward, while others provide an alternative to medications and purification. Some cultures practice regular detoxification while others find it a fad. Each individual should be educated in the process in order to decide for themselves. The most common types of detoxification include:

 

·         Alcohol detoxification

·         Drug detoxification

·         Diet detoxification

·         Metabolic detoxification

·         Detoxification as an alternative medicine

 

Drug detoxification may be employed through drug as well as drug-free treatments. Many drug detoxification programs take up to three months, but time, discomfort and success rates depend on individuals, the severity of their drug dependence, attitude, and desire to engage in counseling and therapy to help overcome physical, emotional and mental issues related to drug addiction.

 

Facilities around the world such as The Grand Resort Bad Ragaz in Switzerland or the Dr. Vorobiev a Rehab Clinic in Russia and Bulgaria offer superlative detox and rehab services at affordable prices. Privacy, confidentiality, compassion and service offer international travelers the ability to seek greater health and wellness no matter where you are.

Wish you had better vision but can’t afford to spend a fortune? Wish your insurance company would cover the cost of LASIK procedures so that you could see better, work better and play better without having to worry about losing or breaking glasses or dealing with contact lenses? LASIK eye surgery is affordable, and it helps with a variety of vision impairments. Whether you have nearsightedness, astigmatism or are farsighted, laser surgery is quick, inexpensive and safe way to correct vision impairments in less than an hour. 

 

LASIK surgery involves the cornea reshaping, which is the protruding part of the surface of the eyeball.  Used to correct a wide variety of vision problems, LASIK eye surgery has become a preferred eye surgery procedure for people who have, or are experiencing vision problems such as eye myopia or nearsightedness, hypermetropia or farsightedness, as well as acuvue astigmatism.

 

Other benefits to laser surgery are the quick recovery time. In fewer than 30 minutes, you can get one or both eyes done and have little to no discomfort. LASIK eye surgery also replaces the use of scalpels in such a sensitive area of the body, reducing the number of complications that result from more traditional surgical procedures. Due to the short time it takes to complete the procedure, affordable eye surgery is within reach!

 

Look at lasik eye centers and facilities around the world for great options in affordable eye surgery, such as Makewell Meditour in Mumbai, India where lasik eye surgeons offer the best accommodations for patients, or the Almater Hospital in Mexicali, Mexico for affordable lasik eye procedure and surgery options, advanced technology and high quality facilities.
