Liz, Rancho Viejo -- Had an OPEN MRI of knee. “I drove 3 miles south from the Veterans Bridge, 2 left turns and I was there. The road signs to the hospital are very easy to follow. My check-in took less than 3 minutes, the MRI 45 minutes, the results 10. I received the films, a CD and the radiology report was translated and e-mailed to my orthopedic surgeon in San Antonio. All for $99 dollars.”

George, Business -- Owner, Brownsville. Employee lacerated his finger. “I took him to the ER in the US and waited for 45 minutes, he was still bleeding and I couldn’t get a time frame on how long the wait would be, so we called the ER at CMI in Matamoros. It was a 12 minute drive and they were waiting for us when we showed up. My employee had his finger stitched up by a general surgeon and we were on our way within 30 minutes. The service was great, the care was excellent, the price…extraordinary!”
