And how do I know any of this is true?

Check us before you bring anyone

  1. Ask for the operating notice

    We'll give you the COFEPRIS registration number by phone or WhatsApp so you can verify it yourself.

  2. Look up every professional license

    The names above are in Mexico's public registry of professionals. You can search them without telling us.

  3. Come see the clinic

    Schedule a visit before your family member is admitted: the facility, the schedule, and who is on duty.

If a place can't show you these three things, it isn't a clinic. Ask the same of every other place you're considering.

So what do I do now?

Ask everything before you decide.

The clinical assessment is free and confidential. We explain options, costs, and how admission works.
