blankletmusic Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 I'm looking to have a laser hydrocelectomy as VA in the states will apparently not do this. Any clinics in the Lakeside area that do these outpatient procedures (and their contact info-a website or email address if they have one) would be very helpful.

Tingting Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 I had to look up the procedure and then which doctor would you need to see...a urologist. I'm not making any recommendations, but there are 7 listed under Ribera Medical Center: https://www.hospitalrmc.com/copia-de-medical-directory 376.765.8200 Just a guess, but you may find that you have consultations locally but still have to go to Guad for the actual procedure. At any rate, hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blankletmusic Posted August 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2022 Yes, thank you. Are many of the minor procedures performed in the clinics (such as laser hydrocelectomy) relatively affordable when paying in cash? I know the term relatively affordable is pretty subjective.....

Seriously is any urologist procedure minor?.. Except when you bend over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tingting Posted August 8, 2022 Report Share Posted August 8, 2022 It can be very reasonable, but an important suggestion for you: GET THE PRICE UPFRONT IN WRITING. If you're told something and then wait until the procedure is over, you may find yourself in for a --cough, cough -- surprise. Most of the docs/hospitals are quite honest, but some just looooooooove adding a "gringo tax." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
