Health Care Nuevo VallartaThere are a few ways to get medical attention if you need it. There are some local clinics and Hospitals nearby. Nobody plans for accidents, so it’s probably best to get to know the right places before anything happens (and carry around some extra cash too!). Private hospitals and clinics offer good-quality care and expect payment in advance. Be prepared to pay for treatment yourself and then request a refund from your insurer. Make sure you have adequate travel health insurance and accessible funds to cover the cost of any medical treatment and medical evacuation, if required. Contact your insurance company promptly if you are referred to a medical facility for treatment or get a quote for coverage before you arrive.

Prescriptions are recommended, but if you know what you need, or if you bring your empty box/bottle, they may be able to refill it. As always, it's always best to see a doctor first. Dentists Many US and Canadian citizens have discovered substantial savings (even after the cost of the vacation) by having quality dental work done in Mexico. Mexican Dentists & Oral Surgeons are equal to the best available across the world. Dental training and certification in Mexico is very similar to the Canada/US. Four years of dental school, followed by a one year internship, then a professional exam. Look for a Dentist that is a member of the ADM (Associacion Dental Mexicana) or the American Dental Association. Certification is not mandatory, but ensures they are up to date with their training and ethics. Stay away from dentists with bad teeth! Local Clinics
