Medical Tourism. Am I insane??

I'm not taking having my cock cut on lightly, but without insurance, I have done some research and there are some somewhat affordable options abroad. One in particular I've been looking at is a Dr Ismael Avila in Mexicali. He is credentialed and have performed these surgeries for years. Thoughts?
They only offer the "Ultrex" although I'm not sure which version. The cost is around 11k.

I have the same insurance issue. They paid out over a hundred grand for surgery and radiation but they won't pay a dollar to treat the ED after effects. I have some snowbird friends that cross the border for dental work when their in AZ for the winter. Saves them $$ and seems to work out great. Some of the work is over 10 years without any problems. They found out about this dentist from other retirees when they first went to AZ. Talk to this Dr and see if he can give you contact information on any implant patients on this side of the border. Maybe you can get a recommendation or two. Let us know what you find out.
Good luck, Buck

From the website http://www.medicaltourismco.com/mexico- ... niguez.php
He has performed over 3,000 Urological and Oncological surgical procedures including implants and transplant infusion.
Sounds good record, the question is why he is doing just "Ultrex"?

My uro said that from time to time he does implants in USA (I am in Ontario, Canada) for $25K. That includes getting him a temporary license for the particular state.
