Dr. Carranza-Baez, 612 122 2839 meets your requirements. An active Naval Surgeon who maintains a private practice in the evenings. He preformed a very difficult 2-1/2 hour surgery on my left hand which totally restored complete use a couple of years ago. He started with a claw.
I doubt if his receptionist speaks English but he sure does.
In general I have found the military trained Doctors to be exceptional in Mexico.

Epley Maneuver didn't help me, sorry no help. I went to Dr Oliver Chung for acupuncture treatments which eliminated all vertigo! Results are worth it, totally. Five years ago, Dr Chung ended 30 years of Migraines for me and since that time I've only had 2 that required a pill and 3 that went away after about 30 minutes! Prior, I'd had them 24/7 for 5 months straight! Highly recommend Dr Chung and his daughter, Dra Chung,

Can someone please recommend a Doctor Who will culture a specimen and give me The correct medicine.

Shingles is very painful and can last for years. It's recommended that everyone older than 60 who has had chickenpox should be vaccinated. I don't remember having chickenpox, but the vaccine isn't harmful, according to doctors and the internet.  Dr. Alonso Flores Lopez has the vaccine so I went to his office yesterday. He showed me the expiration date on the box which was reassuring. The medication is the same one they use in the States, but he charged a third less than they charge there. The actual shot was quick and painless. Dr. Flores is located on Serdan #640 between Republica and Torre Iglesias. His phone 125-5899 email:

The lab at Fedipaz hospital is  excellent, fast, good charges and you can pick up the results in a few hours or  have them emailed to you.  You do not need a doctors order for lab work  here.. so if you know what you want just write it down translate into Spanish  and take in with you

Hands down top notch: Dr. Javier Escamilla in Cabo. 624-195-3030 or cell 624-355-4923. My boyfriend had a total knee replacement performed by Dr. Escamilla at the very end of January. For well over a month now, he has been riding his mountain bike on the single track trails around Todos Santos. He was barely able to walk prior to surgery - not to mention his outrageous pain. His recovery (it has been less than 4 months now) has been amazing. It has been a stellar experience with Dr. Escamilla. We believe the attention, care and treatment was far superior to any in the US (where we are from). I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Dr. Escamilla.

A couple of years ago when Club Cruceros gave a donation to the Doctora in charge of terminal cancer patients she went to Guadalajara to purchase the drugs at half the price in Baja Sur. That started a few of us checking the price of common things. We definitely pay 50-200% more than other Mexican states for the same items. Latest example which seems to affect most Mexicans and non-Mexicans alike, is the drug quinfamida, which is used to combat stomach parasites. Every company in Mexico makes it, but the pricing varies radically. Last week we bought two boxes at the same time at the same drug store in La Paz. Not a high priced one either. We paid 374 pesos each. One box said the price could not go over 270, and the other 340. When we checked on line we were able to buy from ospharma.com at 54 pesos apiece, and that box said not to be sold over 68 pesos! Shipping in Mexico is five bucks registered mail, or fifteen to USA. We bought 5 boxes and with shipping to the door, paid 154 instead of 374. Any other comparisons or information appreciated.

I would recommend that you contact Dr. Judith Yarhi Carrasco who is the
Chief of Surgery here in La Paz. She speaks perfect English and I'm sure she
would make a good recommendation for you. We have used her many times. Her
number is (612) 127-0686

I had a hip replacement here and the doctor and hospital could not have been
better.

The orthopedic surgeon is Dr. Gerardo Mangino. He just does hips and knees.
He also worked in the U.S.

He works out of AmeriMed Hospital in Los Cabos but does come to La Paz His
phone is 624 127 31 85

His email is gerardo.mangino@prontomail.com

The cost in the US $50,000 Cost here including hospital and follow up
$14,000.

Cheers,

b. Dermatologist/Plastic Surgeon!!!!! A super friend recommended that I see her doctor for a mysterious infection on my face. She did surgery and I am so relieved. For all those recent immigrants to Los Barriles, let me add my recommendation for Dr. Judith (Dra. Judith Esther Yarhi Carrasco) in La Paz. Her phone number is 612-127-0686. She does tummy tucks, face lifts, removes moles, scars, cysts etc. etc. etc. You will love her! Karen Hunt

For an ophthalmologist, the best is YOUNG Dr. Miguel Lechuga in Fide Paz his office number: 124 0400 the receptionist answers for him as well as Dr. Diaz.
Dr. Lechuga is bi lingual, up to date and precise. He does the follow up care for the surgery I had done in Tijuana. He is also at his San Lucas offices on Mondays.
He is accurate at prescribing.
For frames and filling the prescription I use Optica Valdez on Altamirano e Rosales y Allende

La Paz Cardiologist - I recently asked if anyone has had contact with a good cardiologist in La Paz. Several responses came through and one reader requested I share the Doctors' names. I have not made contact with either of the Drs. as of yet. Dr Ignacio Espinoza 6121272529; Dr Manual Andres Sainz Felix Ortega 6121230425. - Steve,

A few weeks ago someone mentioned a good dermatologist in La Paz, can you post her email and phone number again on the Baja Pony, please. Thank you.
Answer: I can recommend Dra. Judith for any type of skin problems. She just operated on me 3 weeks ago. I feel great and my arms are clear of any bad things.. She's in La Paz, so nice and speaks very good English..There are so many down here that have used her...

Hi,
I am an ophthalmologist who does this surgery routinely.
In answer to your excellent questions:
I would look for state of the art surgery (which should be available) including phaco, foldable iol with small incision. Lens power calculations should be done with iolmaster to ensure desired post op refractive error. There also are premium iols(bifocal and astigmatism correcting) at extra cost. These are usually not needed but may be a consideration depending on the patient. The surgeon should be experienced. I would avoid itinerant surgery-that is someone who comes to La Paz periodically but is not there for followup. Ideally the followup should be done by the surgeon and not delegated. Complications can happen early or late and there is no assurance a given operation will be routine. The last thing you want is a complication and the surgeon is back in Ensenada.
I could find no information on Carlos Ibarra.
Dr Lechuga is a member of American Academy of Ophth and has had first rate training in retina. We have a mutual patient and I am very impressed with his work in retina.I don't know about his cataract training or volume. It would be a very favorable if your surgeon were a member of the American Academy of Ophth or ASCRS. This is true in the US also. Feel free to contact me if you have further questions.
Steve
