Mexico became a nation in 1821 when Mexico achieved independence from the Spanish Empire; this began the process of forging a national identity that fused the cultural traits of indigenous pre-Columbian origin with those of European, particularly Iberian, ancestry. This led to what has been termed "a peculiar form of multi-ethnic nationalism"

The most spoken language by Mexicans is Mexican Spanish, but some may also speak languages from 62 different indigenous linguistic groups and other languages brought to Mexico by recent immigration or learned by Mexican immigrants residing in other nations. Over 78% of the Mexican people live in Mexico but there is a sizable diaspora with nearly 22% living in the United States.

Testimonials

My doctor recommended Gastric Bypass surgery for me but where I live in the United States, it’s very expensive, I researched about Medical Tourism and felt that it was a lot more feasible for me to travel to Mexico for the surgery. The doctors/hospital was great, my surgery went well. I am recovered and went from a size 24 to a 14/16! Best thing I’ve ever done. I look forward to traveling again, this time for a tummy tuck!

I always wanted to get my teeth fixed because they were crooked but since I’m a poor college student, I didn’t feel like I could afford it. I heard about Panacea Health Services through a friend of mine who also received treatment and I decided that the price to go to Costa Rica and get veneers was affordable. While I was there I went hiking, went to beaches, saw animals and of course got my teeth fixed. Now they are exactly how I wanted them to be, I finally have confidence to smile in pictures. Thank you PHSI, your staff was very helpful to me!

After trying to conceive for about 3 years we looked into reproductive assistance. The reproductive team checked for a lot of possible issues, and suggested a course of action, including acupuncture. Then, I had a couple of months of Clomid and Femora, followed by 2 months of injectable drugs. On the first transfer we were successful! The entire team continued to follow the pregnancy and be of help– they were always available when I had questions. I’m so grateful for IVF and those along the way that were involved in the process that made my dream come true. Now I have an adorable, happy boy that calls me mommy.

I needed all four of my wisdom teeth out but I didn’t have dental insurance, so instead of paying thousands and thousands of dollars in the U.S., I decided to go to Mexico for the procedure. The clinic was very clean, the medical staff was very knowledgeable and attentive, and they spoke English! I saved thousands of dollars and I’m no longer in pain from those teeth! If I ever need to have another procedure, I’ll definitely be traveling outside the U.S.
