James, an avid hiker, had put his trails on hold for years as knee pain worsened, but the cost of surgery at home kept pushing the decision further away. Through ElectiveCare he found Dr. Eduardo Ramírez, an orthopedic surgeon in Monterrey with over two decades of experience in joint replacement.
Dr. Ramírez's expertise was evident from the first consultation, James says -- a clear explanation of the minimally invasive approach, realistic timelines, and what recovery would actually look like. The hospital in Monterrey was state-of-the-art, and James felt well cared for throughout his stay.
Six months after surgery, James is back on the trails pain-free, something he hadn't expected to do again anytime soon. Between the surgeon's expertise and the hospital's quality, he says the experience matched anything available in the US -- at a savings of over $30,000.
