Weight Loss Surgery Mexico

Weight Loss Surgery in Mexico

Many Americans choose to have weight loss surgery in Mexico due to the high costs they encounter in the United States. Many choose to travel outside of the country, specifically to Mexico to avoid paying double for bariatric surgery.

Traveling to Mexico for medical treatment is an excellent option for men and women who do not have health insurance or whose health plan will not pay for the weight loss surgery.

Insurance often does not cover the cost of weight loss surgery and some people who are considering bariatric surgery are traveling abroad, which may be their only way of affording weight loss surgery.

When deciding to have weight loss surgery, safety and cost are the two major factors. Bariatric surgeons in Mexico are highly qualified and provide safe and convenient atmosphere for their patients.

Having good quality health care and experienced surgeons does not have to cost a fortune. The cost of weight loss surgery in Mexico is about half of what it costs in the United States.

This makes traveling to Mexico a more affordable option for those who want to have bariatric surgery and weight loss surgery clinics in Mexico have locations in Cancun, Tijuana and many other popular tourist locations!

Mexico is located at about 23° N and 102° W in the southern portion of North America. Almost all of Mexico lies in the North American Plate, with small parts of the Baja California peninsula on the Pacific and Cocos Plates.


Geophysically, some geographers include the territory east of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (around 12% of the total) within Central America. Geopolitically, however, Mexico is entirely considered part of North America, along with Canada and the United States.


Mexico's total area is 1,972,550 km², making it the world's 14th largest country by total area, and includes approximately 6,000 km² of islands in the Pacific Ocean (including the remote Guadalupe Island and the Revillagigedo Islands), Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of California. On its north, Mexico shares a 3,141 km border with the United States.


Areas south of the twenty-fourth parallel with elevations up to 1,000 meters (the southern parts of both coastal plains as well as the Yucatán Peninsula), have a yearly median temperature between 24 and 28 °C.


Temperatures here remain high throughout the year, with only a 5 °C difference between winter and summer median temperatures. Although low-lying areas north of the twentieth-fourth parallel are hot and humid during the summer, they generally have lower yearly temperature averages (from 20 to 24 °C) because of more moderate conditions during the winter.
