SAN FRANCISCO HGH Cost Save 60%

Anti-Aging and Wellness Medical has been working on reducing the massive markup on prescription drugs like HGH since 2013.  US citizens can become patients of ours at one of our two US locations, or at one of our international medical tourist destinations. Our first international location opened its doors in Costa Rica in 2013. Since that time, we’ve expanded into Mexico, Panama, Kentucky, and Florida. We are now looking to expand into California sometime in Q4 of 2019.

Internationally, we are preparing for additional expansion opportunities which may include Colombia, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic. Each one of these locations is investing heavily in modern infrastructure to recruit US-style “cash-based” medical services like ours, so we may have some more news in the near future.

Why International?

Well, it’s no secret – we pay more for many prescription drugs in the US than in other countries. Also, each country has its own regulatory bodies. As stem cell and exosome therapies become more elucidated, and the science behind it matures, it really is important to have a presence in locations that offer patients a choice in how they pursue their personal and private medical decisions. Life moves fast and legislative bodies, particularly when healthcare is concerned, rarely keeps pace. This is especially true for regenerative and metabolic medicine. 

Fortunately, many of the international jurisdictions we mentioned are investing heavily in new state of the art facilities for the purposes of international medical tourism. This segment of medical tourism is booming. People want choice and are frustrated and tired at being left with few options with insured health care. 

With our program, those in the Bay area on HGH or those looking to begin an HGH replacement therapy program can do so with us for 60% less than in at a comparable anti-aging or age management medical clinic in San Francisco. We can prescribe and monitor treatment, conduct follow-up blood testing near your home, and manage your care via telemedicine once the treatment begins. Your treatment can be overseen by US licensed doctors or at the very least, board-certified doctors who are licensed to practice in the US, Costa Rica, or Mexico. Each of these locations has doctors on staff that are also US citizens but are licensed to practice medicine abroad. 

HGH & Testosterone Prescription Requirements

There is little or very little difference receiving an HGH or testosterone therapy prescription through us or a US domiciled clinic. And, if international treatment remains a concern, we have licensed physicians in California and Florida as well. 

Like other age management clinics practicing in hormone replacement and optimization therapies, all patients must complete comprehensive lab testing, a medical intake questionnaire, and undergo a physical examination at one of our testing/lab facilities. Once treatment is prescribed, follow up consultation can be performed via telemedicine and local Quest lab blood testing follow-ups for up to 1-2 years. 

What About the Team?

We have assembled a highly professional team of international business professionals and board-certified physicians. To state it mildly, working with us is like working with GETROMAN or FORHIMS at 10x disruption. Our clinics were founded by a former wireless telecom CEO, when he invested in a young Costa Rican doctors back in 2013. So, just like GETROMAN and FORHIMS are disrupting the erectile dysfunction market, we have been disrupting hormone replacement therapy markets successfully since 2013, but with a much higher level of concierge-level care and management. 

Board-certified physicians in anti-aging, urology, orthopedics, and more. 

Let’s look at one scenario. Let’s say you were to elect services at our Costa Rica clinic. In that case, you would be working with someone like Dr. Ugalde.  He is not only board-certified in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine by the American Acadamy of Anti-Aging Medicine, but he also holds dual Costa Rican and US citizenship. In fact, he did his premedical training and his anti-aging boards in the United States. Dr. Ugalde has treated countless patients from the San Francisco Bay area, as well as throughout the United States. Those who are seeking a better value chose us. 

What is Medical Tourism?

Medical tourism is booming internationally. The US medical system is no longer optimized to serve the middle class like it once was 40 or so years ago. Savvy patients with an interest in wellness and longevity turn to beautiful and exotic places like Costa Rica, Mexico, and Panama. Costa Rica is the No. 5 Medical Tourist destination in the World. Tijuana Mexico is the No. 1 Medical Tourist destination in North America. Panama is the financial center of Latin America. The beaches are beautiful, the doctors are great, and the prices are insanely better than here in the United States. 

For those who are still skeptical, we also have access to a board-certified physician Dr. Henderson licensed in California, Florida, and Costa Rica. Dr. Henderson has been board certified in anti-aging medicine since 2004. Before that, he was board-certified in emergency medicine. He is one of the only US physicians who is licensed in the US and Costa Rica. So, whether you speak English or Spanish, one point that will hit home with our medical care is competence, value and a desire to work with you on your quest for health and improved quality of life.  We also work hard at getting every step of the process done right. 

Why are we Unique?

The success of our multinational structure is second to none since we are really the first to create such an innovative approach in medicine. It combines medical tourism with US doctors and treatment centers abroad with the brand consistency of a global hotel chain. With our program, we can reduce treatment costs by 60% or more for HGH therapy. We can play big-pharma at their own multinational game for the benefit of our patients, so you no longer pay a premium for being a US resident.

We are not a mail order or internet pharmacy. We offer highly professional services at treatment centers throughout the Americas. 

When patients follow our system, they receive excellent US-style standard-of-care along with access to the same medications like HGH for much less. The great benefit for patients is a choice in how they manage their aging process. Patients need not be a high-tech billionaire or Hollywood movie star to have access to these therapies. 

Big Prescription Drug Price Concerns: Americans are Desperate for Better Prescription Drug Prices

As many are aware, this isn’t just an HGH cost problem. Many medications like insulin and others are much higher in US cities like San Francisco than in other countries, e.g., Canada and Mexico.

Case in Point: A recent news report shows how many diabetics are traveling to Canada for their insulin treatment because “Big Pharma” has inflated the prices for it in the USA. Ironically, some of the largest leading insulin producers are also the same leading HGH manufacturers. Anyone who experiences this sort of price gap for the same medications knows it’s unfair and must change. Meanwhile, we do what we can to keep our rates at a level which doesn’t sacrifice quality, while delivering exceptional price value for patients.

Can the US Government Reduce Prescription Prices?

Lawmakers on both sides of the political spectrum have aggressively pushed to rectify price imbalances. Yet little if anything has been done to bring down the ridiculously high cost of HGH and other prescription drug therapies in the USA. Listen to both President Trump and former Senator Al Franken in the videos below addressing these concerns. Sen. Franken drills “Big Pharma” executives in Senate hearings while President Trump rails against Big Pharma, corporate lobbyist, and lack of progress on this issue from past administrations. We remain optimistic that as public awareness grows, sufficient pressure will get applied to lawmakers, regulatory bodies, and pharmaceutical companies so these price disparities are resolved equitably.
