Mexico City, Mexico
We work with board-certified specialists in Monterrey and Mexico City.

Unlike agencies that offer medical tourism for any procedure, ALUMA focuses its coordination on eight specialties with greater logistical complexity: plastic, bariatric, gastrointestinal, and orthopedic/trauma surgery, clinical and interventional cardiology, spine surgery, urology, and ophthalmic surgery. These are procedures and evaluations that require hospitalization, a real recovery period and, in most cases, a companion — exactly the kind of trip we know how to coordinate.
At ALUMA, we coordinate every logistical aspect of your trip around the medical care you receive, taking care of your stay and your companion's so you can focus on your treatment.
