Medical Care Question - 10/09/10 10:29 AM
I am 27 and hoping to move to Belize in the next couple of years. I have a pre-existing medical condition that does not affect me daily in anyway, but I will most likely need surgery for it again, maybe tomorrow, but most likely five, ten, twenty years from now or never again.
All I can find online is generalized info on medical care and hospitals. I know I will most likely have to end up flying back to the States or seeking medical care in Mexico should a problem arise but it would be so much easier to stay in Belize.
If there is anyone who can point me in the direction of a neurosurgeon that I can email, or someone who has dealt with neurosurgeons in Belize that would be greatly appreciated. Or even if anyone knows any American doctors who have done temporary work in Belize. I'm just looking for some personal accurate info on medical capabilities, and trying to pinpoint if there is a single doctor in Belize who has the ability and equipment to help me should I need it.
Thanks so much.
