       We, at ArgentinaHealthGuide.com, have through our personal experiences and discerning tastes, partnered with Argentina's globally accredited Doctors.  As is indicative in our testimonial section, patients from all over the World have traveled to Argentina, not only for the favorable exchange currency, but also to receive only the best of services and treatments. For savings of close to 75% off of prices in the USA and Europe alike, Buenos Aires is within ones' reach. Moreover, a direct flight from Atlanta, Newark, Houston and European cities, such as Frankfurt, allow patients to complete their health care packages within even the tightest schedules.  

     While we realize that you have choices, we believe that you as our patient, will not only enjoy getting the best of treatment and outcome, but will save time, money and effort, by selecting to use our proven services.  We welcome you to review this site and to enter any concerns or questions in our live Blog, as well as by emailing us directly.  Our physicians are there for you and will answer any concerns within 24 hours of your inquiry.  

•Our prices are inclusive of travel arrangements, including airport transfers, accommodations, health treatments based on patients needs, as well as holistic care package (based on which health care program that you decide to complete).  While we do our best to ensure that the price quoted is actual, we understand that patients upon their arrival want to add other services to their plans.  This can be adjusted locally.

•Our physicians are all board certified and leading medical doctors in their fields of expertise.  They are globally recognized and speak fluent English. Moreover, they have been carefully screened and patient testimonials will attest to their credentials and excellent care. Prior to any medical procedure, including anesthesia, the M.S. will address any issues and concerns with you and ensure that you will get the best patient care.  Certain medical exams may be requested prior to your arrival and these tests will be discussed with you in detail.

•As with all surgeries, there are some inherent risks.  In the event of litigation the registered medical practitioners, hospitals and clinics would defend themselves only in Argentinean courts.
