shortstop Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 We often eat at Jorge's directly across the street from this hospital. The most activity I have ever seen is people washing the front windows. We have never heard of anyone being admitted there. There are seldom more than just a few cars in the parking lot. Anybody have any first-hand information about this place? Maybe we are just around on non-busy days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holalola Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 It's not a hospital...it is a clinic. My husband has seen the cardiologist Dr Moya, the rehab physician Dr Hernandez and completed a course of cardiac rehab at the clinic. We've been thrilled with the care he received there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Don’t know about that facility. Glad you had a good experience. Other cardiac option Dr. Briseño at Quality Care. Excellent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cedros Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 I have noticed the same-very little activity there. Dr. Moya who built it also has an office in Jocotepec. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 I do not recommend this doctor or his clinic. Been there. See Dr. Briseno at Quality Care. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 A neighbour who has had heart problems for years has been a patient of Dr. Moya for years thinks he is very good. Dr. Moya seems quite expensive to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 A friend years ago when he was at Integrity this Dr. charged him 8000 pesos for a stress test while the person was actually having a gallbladder attack. stress tests are not 8000 pesos. My friend taken. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that my neighbour who has been a client of Dr. Moya for years is being over charged. I asked a bilingual Mexican to go over Moya's bill as a result I told my neighbour not to pay more unless Moya does something specific. The only way Moya will come visit my neighbour at home is if my neighbour tells Moya he has money or him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post certainly wasn't second hand. Dr. Moya does make house calls-sometimes unexpectedly. I was happy with Dr. Moya's care, just concerned about the charges. The Mexican caretaker and Mexican lawyer I brought in thought it was high but they would I guess as they could shop around and find lower prices but my neighbour could not as he was house bound.

Senoir D Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I don't know where some of the info on Dr. Moya is coming from but from my own and several friends personal experiences it isn't accurate .He was recommended to me by a medical professional from the U.S. and proved to be everything I could hope for in a cardiologist .He found a problem I didn't even know I had and had me operated on in a few days to correct the problem . He told me exactly what it would cost , which compared to other doctors who have worked on me, seemed very reasonable .His rate for office consultations is the same or less than at least 4 cardiologists I have seen .For my surgery he had a young doctor on his staff take me to and from the hospital .Dr. Moya paid the hospital and I paid him later . If you don't think this is rare just check around . After my surgery Dr. Moya or one of his other doctors came to my house everyday for two weeks to check on my condition .There was no extra charge .My wife also had a serious illness that wasn't Dr. Moya's field but since I trusted him I ask for his opinion on who to see and he brought a specialist in from Guad to treat her . My advice is never take someone else's opinion when it comes to your health .See the doctor yourself , ask all the right questions and make your own decisions . There are way too many people posting info on legal or medical issues that are wrong , misinformed , or just don't know what they are talking about. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Mexicans involved in this case thought he charged too much. I have no idea whether he did or not. I only met him a few times-not as a patient.

gringal Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 I don't know how it went with your neighbor, but several years ago I was picked up and driven to a very run down "clinic" in Guadalajara for a stent. Miserable experience in general. If that's still the case, the advertising on the new offices is mighty misleading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends what kind of adjustment the pacemaker needed. Most time the manufacturer reps will visit Lakeside or Guac and make the adjustments with a external Gizzo, any invasive surgery is more complicated and maybe done in Guadalajara were other specialist are on hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 I suggest that the best way to go with any heart issues is Dr. Briseno at Quality Care in the SAT hospital building. The hospital he uses in Guadalajara has fine modern equipment and good care. Of course, his office lacks the flashy presentation, alas!😏 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that changing pacemakers can be done at SAT now instead of having to go to Guadalajara. We are so lucky to have a place like SAT right here for all sorts of things.
