Hospital Galenia

"We brought our bleeding 4-year-old daughter to Galenia Hospital for a small cut that required two stitches. Before treatment, we were given a set price. After the sutures were placed, they inflated the bill by another $300 USD, claiming they had used “additional supplies.” When I asked what these supposed extra supplies were, they couldn’t give me an answer. It was clear they were simply padding the bill to exploit us in a vulnerable moment. When I called them out, their response was appalling: “If you don’t like it, take your bleeding 4-year-old somewhere else.” The final bill came to nearly $3,000 USD for what should have been a routine, inexpensive procedure. This is medical price gouging at its worst, preying on travelers who have no time or ability to shop around. When I later told other local residents and hotel staff what I had been charged, they were shocked — almost falling over — knowing I had been blatantly exploited. The facility may look clean and modern, but their ethics are nonexistent. If you value honesty, transparency, and basic human decency, avoid Galenia Hospital at all costs."

"I wish i could give something more than 5stars. Extremely professional and empathetic staff. I had the best nurses and it was such a great way for me and my husband the start the journey into parenthood. Thank you so much."

"I gave birth to my son at Hospital Galenia. I normally never leave reviews but I have to say I had the most amazing birth experience here. The hospital itself is very clean. The staff are very kind and attentive. I wanted to thank two people, Ivana Valeria Rangel Rodriguez Hospital Galenia’s Medical Tourism Coordinator and Dra Jerilee Martinez Anillo, my OBGYN. I reached out to Ivanna via email. I worked with her for 6 months. She answered all of my questions in a timely and prompt manner. I told her about my birth plan and she helped connect me to Dra Jerilee. Once I was in Cancun Ivanna helped walk me through the hospital’s process, helped me with the paperwork, and she helped me get my appointments set up. She even helped me get appointments set up for my husband and family members. She truly provided outstanding service. Ivanna helped make the process so smooth, stress free, and effortless. My amazing birth experience is mainly due to Dr Jerilee. She made me feel so comfortable and safe. If you're looking for a caring and devoted doctor, look no further. I wanted to deliver my child naturally. My son was breech and she helped me try everything to get him to turn down. Instead of performing a C-section right away. We ended up performing an External Cephalic Version EVC. It was successful and I ended up delivering my son naturally. She stayed with us the entire labor and delivery process over 28 hours. She spent over 12 hours with us directly in our room during labor comforting us, giving us birth/baby tips. I was so touched by how attentive and caring Dra Jerilee and her team were. I would 100% come back to see Dr Jerilee for any future births."

"It feels very comfortable being there. Olivia is the best. She arranges everything for you when you are from outside the country of Mexico. You show up and all is prepared. Her personality is very welcoming and friendly. I love not having to worry about the stress of paper work especially since i don't know Spanish well. All her subordinates speak English as well and are all very nice. Galenia might be costly however the peace of mind you get not being stresses out with paperwork helps a lot. I don't even need to Contact my insurance. They do everything for you. Best service. The receptionist at imaging are a bit slow and don't know any English. But the staff attending to you in the radiation area are super friendly and helpful. I see many people complain about the price. This is a private hospital and will be costly. It is the same in my own country. Private hospitals cost a lot but if you have insurance and you are not from Mexico, then I highly recommend using their tourism concierge. They are a great help and speak English. They are all very nice and helpful. I have had the pleasure of meeting and being assisted by Olivia (who is the best), Ellen, Ricardo and another guy i cant remember his name. Not sure if it is Daniel or something with a D. That was over 2 years ago i met him. They arranged everything with my insurance prior to going there. I just showed up and Olivia walked me through everything. I was in and out as quick as possible. No long waiting. Use the concierge service they have. It really helps you from stressing about paperwork and payments. My journey at Galenia started September 2021 and I continue into 2023......"

"We have had a babies there, and 2 surgeries. We haved used the emergency room. Its the best care we have ever received. Its nicer than any hospital we have used in the USA, and the doctors are some of the best in the country. Gorge Forman and multiple MLB teams use on of my doctors for treatment. Its topnotch care. The director of the hospital is an amazing man and doctor. If we are in the USA and the medical issues allows it, we will got on a plane to come to this hospital for care. Its that good. The emergency room is a little more expensive than other places in town for care, but its because of the quality of care. Its still 1/10 of the cost of a visit at home. Strongest recommendation for a hospital I can give."
