Every Dr. in Mexico has different prices..be careful, some may be cheaper in Mexico but may not be as experienced as Dr. Ortiz is. To me experience is everything. I was told about Dr. Ortiz from a surgeon in Ca, since I was a self pay, he told me why not have the teacher instead of the student. Dr. Ortiz proctored this particular Dr. I went and saw for a consult. He knew I could not afford to be a self pay in the US so he was kind enough to tell me about Dr. Ortiz and Iam exteremly happy with my decison to use Dr. Ortiz

I paid $9500 in March of this year. It included all costs of surgery and a hotel and transportation. (flight cost is on your own).

I don't know if the price has gone up since March, but I don't think so.
