Dr. Mario Salmon in action!
It took some time to finalize all the details, but our first patient, Cheri Junker from Mesa, Arizona came to Mexico to have spine surgery with Dr. Mario Salmon.
In Arizona they told Cheri it would cost USD 200,000 to have a surgery and there was no way she could afford to have that so she did some research on the Internet and found spinalsurgerymexico.com and took a chance to come to Mexico, not knowing Dr. Salmon or Gregory Pope. Please look at her video on the home page, or visit our YouTube Channel.
When Cheri found out that she could have a surgery here in Mexico for less than 1/3 of the price they had quoted her, she took the leap of faith and came in a wheelchair, but left walking home.
We are grateful to her to this day. Since then, we have served over 100 patients and have recorded testimonials of many of the patients that have come to Mexico for spinal surgery.
In the United States, we have had patients from Florida, North Carolina, Missouri, Colorado, Utah, California, Kentucky, Arizona, Texas, and Alaska.
In Canada, we have had patients from different provinces, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Ontario.
The most common type of spine surgery is lumbar decompression, often performed to relieve pressure on spinal nerves and stabilize the spine. This procedure is frequently used to address conditions like spinal stenosis and disc herniation, which can cause pain, numbness, and weakness.
According to patient symptoms, Dr. Salmon decides whether they need only decompression or stabilization at the same time. Not all patients need hardware to get decompression, but a lot of patients need stabilization after decompression.
In the following post, we will describe the most common spinal surgery procedures. Thanks for reading.
