Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapies are non-drug treatments for degenerative diseases such as Parkinson's, leukemia, multiple sclerosis, and many other conditions. When oncologists and other specialists apply stem cell therapies, they transplant undifferentiated cells that can grow into different types of tissues. For example, stem cell therapies for Parkinson's patients can generate new brain tissue. Because it is difficult to obtain and cultivate stem cells, these therapies can be costly to patients. In the UK, the price is about £8,000, while in the US the price is around $20,000. Patients can reduce their medical costs by visiting a hospital overseas.

Within Latin America, affordable stem cell therapies can be found in Mexico and Costa Rica. Here the price of treatment is less than half of what it costs in the US. Degenerative disease experts stay current with the latest research in stem cell transplants, and many doctors and researchers have medical degrees from the US and UK. Stem cell therapies are carried out using the most advanced equipment and stocks of healthy cell cultures. Hospitals are clean and modern, and most doctors and nurses speak English. Before the procedure, the doctor will discuss the risks and success rate of the procedure. Patients can extend their stay in Latin America to take advantage of follow-up care and other treatments. Food and lodging are inexpensive as well.

In Eastern Europe, patients can save money on stem cell therapies by visiting a clinic in Ukraine, Poland, or the Czech Republic. Here, doctors are experienced in the latest techniques and work hard to ensure successful transplantation.
