This is significantly less than in the United States, where the average cost is around $125,000. Patients can save up to 50% on this treatment. The price in Mexico typically includes the initial consultation, pre-treatment blood tests, post-treatment medications, follow-up consultations, personalized treatment plans, meals during clinic visits, and 24/7 patient support. Mexico's popularity for cancer care is due to lower operational costs, experienced oncologists, and internationally accredited clinics, especially in cities like Tijuana and Mexico City.
