Why Transportation Matters in Medical Tourism
Here's the reality of medical tourism: You fly into San Diego, but your hospital is in Tijuana, Mexico—across an international border. Regular taxis can't cross borders. Rental cars aren't an option when you're recovering from surgery. Uber and Lyft drivers often refuse cross-border trips. And even if you could arrange something, would you trust a random driver to navigate international borders, traffic, and get you to the right hospital on time?
This is where most medical tourism companies leave you to figure it out on your own. But not Pompeii Surgical. We've built a complete transportation system that eliminates every bit of stress, confusion, and worry from your journey.

The Transportation Challenge
Why getting around during medical tourism is more complicated than you think
Taxis Can't Cross Borders
Regular taxis from San Diego Airport cannot take you across the international border into Mexico. You'd be stranded at the airport.
Can't Rent a Car
You can't drive yourself after surgery, and most rental companies don't allow cross-border travel. Plus, navigating Tijuana traffic while recovering? Not safe.
Uber/Lyft Won't Help
Rideshare drivers routinely refuse cross-border trips. Even if they accept, they may not know where they're going or have proper insurance.
Unknown Drivers
Would you trust a random driver to navigate international borders, find the right hospital, and get you there safely? That's a lot of stress you don't need.
