Chipsa is a multidisciplinary hospital located in playas de Tijuana and specializing in providing excellence in service to American patients. Due to its strategic location and bilingual staff, this American model approach to medicine is just at a fraction of its price in the USA.
If you visit the installations of the hospital you would find comfortable ambiance and a professional setting that is reassuring while you can get the help for which you are looking. Of course, the most valued component of any hospital is the people who collaborate to provide health services. These individuals sacrifice hours of their day to provide the best care possible. I had the opportunity to talk to several of the individuals who contribute to the great services provided in Chipsa.
The hospital has eight specialties plus other medical specialists who are asked to collaborate externally as needed. The most needed services are usually for heart attacks or injuries while urgent care is also available. They provide insurance that covers students, as well as for families.
I interviewed Dr. Mauricio Mora Flores who works in urgent care. He speaks about his experience as a physician and life in Chipsa and mentions he loves his job. What he loves the most about being a doctor is the opportunity to help those who are disadvantaged, or in community outreach programs. Dr. Flores loves to see the gratitude in people’s faces after they feel better. The least favorite part of his job is when patients don’t follow treatment and don’t return for check-ups so he tends to worry about them. Dr. Mora is a humanitarian at heart and you can tell this by the way he speaks to his patients and by the passion he has for his job.
Dr. Cabrera specializes in digestive and endocrine medicine and has two years of laparoscopic surgery at IMSS and Angeles Hospital. He has multiple recognitions and certifications and he is eminent in his field.
Dr. Cabrera performs bariatric surgery which is the surgical treatment for obesity. The good doctor affirms that 95% of diets and diet pills alone fail long term for people who are 100 pounds overweight. Surgery is required in order to get lasting results. There are different types of surgery which depend on the needs of the patients and the possible risk factors of lap band surgery or gastric bypass.
The best candidates for bariatric surgery are individuals who have a body mass index of over 40 or are over 100 pounds overweight. A rigorous evaluation is needed in order to determine if a person is eligible, as well as a battery of tests.
In order to work with patients who are possible candidates for any bariatric surgery, it’s necessary to work in a multi-disciplinary team. A nutritionist, psychologist, internist and an anesthesiologist collaborate in order to provide integral treatment and follow up to the patient. These things can be obtained at Chipsa.
