Mexico: Health and Safety Travel Guide, 2nd Edition, Jan 24 2008
By R. Kuny - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mexico: Health and Safety Travel Guide (Paperback)
This appears to be an excellent reference guide to a subject shrouded in mystery. As with most issues in Mexico, health care is yet another that benefits by the bright light of knowledge. Fortunately I can say "appears" as I have never had to test the information provided, peace of mind is worth the reasonable cost of the book.I own a vacation home in Mexico on the Pacific coast and health is something that lurks in the background of every stay. This guide has provided a solid background for all health queries from how the system works to specific physician referrals. Much of the information should be considered as date sensitive and will need to be updated regularly to maintain it's value.
I feel that this is an essential guide for the serious traveller to Mexico. People in reasonable health and very occasional resort travel probably need not bother.
