Knowledgeable, board certified, dedicated, professional, sincere and compassionate, that´s what I want when I search for the best cardiologist, and those words are what best describes Doctor Rafael Moguel, the Director of The Clinic of the Heart in Cabo San Lucas. Doctor Moguel is recognized by the medical community as the leader in his field, his extraordinary knowledge regarding endovascular treatments is legendary, having studied in Mexico and Spain his techniques have won him many accolades and he is of course board certified. Dedicated professionals like Doctor Moguel are rare and uncommon, as his patients will attest, he will seem to always be at their side and with their families, explaining step by step the procedures he will perform. But most of all, the quality that all people that somehow have been touched by Rafael Moguel is his sincere compassion, this rare form of humanity especially in the medical profession that in the most part has dissapeared is alive and well with Doctor Moguel. So when searching for the best cardiologist, visit www.cardioabroad.com, read the testimonials, call the Doctor, you will talk to him, not a secretary, his approach to practicing medicine is not new, it just dissapeared.

About known cardiac problems during vacations

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Hi, I am Dr. Moguel.

Many people come on vacations while having known cardiac diseases, such as previous coronary surgery or stenting, pacemaker, etc.

Many of our patients come because a worsening of a known cardiac condition during their vacation stay in Cabos and although we have more than 95% success in their treatment, it is a problem for them and their relatives because:

  • Early discontinuation of vacations
  • Unplanned expenses
  • Possible second opinion after visiting another facility
  • Misconception of Mexican medical service

If you or your relative have a known cardiac problem or high risk of having one, contact us before your trip so we will know about your specific problems and of course we can do the diagnosis of their actual status with simple tests just to avoid surprises.
