Sorted by independent ratings on Google and Trustpilot, weighted by the number of reviews, so a 4.9 from 20 reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from 8,000.

Flights. The shortest trip of any destination we work with. Nonstop flights to Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey and Cancun from most large U.S. hubs, 2 to 5 hours; Tijuana is reachable on foot from San Diego.
U.S. State Department advisory. The advisory is set state by state. Baja California, where Tijuana and Ensenada are, is at Level 3 – Reconsider Travel, because of crime and kidnapping; U.S. government employees face no extra restrictions in Tijuana, Ensenada or Rosarito, and most violence happens outside tourist areas. Read the advisory
You don't pay xcuro anything. If you go ahead with treatment at an xcuro partner clinic, that clinic pays us a referral fee.
Clinics can't pay to be listed, to appear higher or to change their reviews.
Clinic ratings come from Google and Trustpilot, and each one links to its source.
Every U.S. price we compare against names its source. Your own quote comes from the clinic in writing.
Among the clinics we list, weighting each rating by its number of reviews: Advanced Smiles Dentistry (Google 4.9 from 771 reviews); Obesity Control Center (Google 4.9 from 685 reviews); Shtern Dental Clinic (Google 4.9 from 660 reviews). Ratings reflect patients' experience of the clinic, not medical outcomes.
1 of the 24 list JCI accreditation: CHRISTUS MUGUERZA Hospital Alta Especialidad. JCI (Joint Commission International) is the international arm of the body that accredits most U.S. hospitals. Accreditation lapses and is renewed every three years, so check the current status in JCI's online directory before you book.
Lowest prices at clinics listed on xcuro, in U.S. dollars: Dental Implants from $800 (U.S. $2,143+); Veneers from $430 (U.S. $1,455+); Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) from $5,599; Breast Augmentation from $4,800 (U.S. $6,000+). Final quotes depend on your case and come from the clinic in writing.
U.S. passport holders travel without a visa for up to 180 days. A passport book is required for air travel, and a tourist permit (FMM, issued digitally at airports) is required on arrival.
U.S. State Department: The advisory is set state by state. Baja California, where Tijuana and Ensenada are, is at Level 3 – Reconsider Travel, because of crime and kidnapping; U.S. government employees face no extra restrictions in Tijuana, Ensenada or Rosarito, and most violence happens outside tourist areas. Medical risk depends on the clinic and the procedure; the CDC advises checking the facility's credentials and arranging follow-up care in the U.S. before you travel.
Usually not for planned treatment abroad, and Original Medicare generally does not pay for care outside the United States. Ask your insurer in writing before you book, and buy travel health insurance that covers complications and medical evacuation, as the CDC recommends.
Check the license and accreditations, read the independent reviews yourself, ask who will treat you and what the written quote includes, and line up a doctor at home for follow-up care before you travel.
