What Are The Symptoms Of Heart Disease?

Heart or cardiac problems may cause a variety of symptoms depending on the actual area of the heart affected by disease or damage. You may feel different symptoms from a heart attack than symptoms of congestive heart failure or a blocked or malfunctioning heart valve. Understanding symptoms of cardiac issues may help you identify problems early rather than later, which may very well save your life.

Cosmetic Surgery Cancun – Perfection Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery

There are few places as beautiful as Cancun, a world famous tourist destination in Cancun Mexico, along the white, sandy shores of the Gulf Coast. Cancun has grown a worldwide reputation as providing some of the finest, qualified and effective medical spa and plastic surgical procedures in the world. From tummy tucks to breast implants to liposculpture, nose surgery to medical spa treatments, Perfection offers the best.

"Our trip to see Dr. Alfonso Gonzalez Cepeda and his crew far exceeded our expectations," says Jessica, a patient who underwent Liposculpture , a Brazilian buttock lift, and a medial thigh lift. Jessica was understandably anxious about the quality of services she would receive in Mexico, and even her U.S. based doctors cautioned her against it.

However, Jessica took the time to research facilities and found that Dr. Cepeda of Perfection carried all the same medical and training credentials as U.S. based surgeons and was internationally certified to perform the procedures she was interested in. "Once the doctor examined me in person, he offered to do more than we were originally quoted for, without charging anything extra. There were no surprises at the end, and costs covered all my medications and compression garments."

Jessica was pleasantly surprised to realize that staff at the state-of-the-art facility showed more concern for her health and well-being than her doctors back home. She was assigned a nurse for 24 hours a day during the first two days following her procedures and recovery in the clinic. "Our experience was excellent, the staff were highly qualified, and we were treated in a manner that far exceeded our expectations," says Jessica.
Pleasant Surprises at Perfection Medical Spa and Plastic Surgery Center offers professionals with more than 20 years of experience in aesthetic and plastic surgical treatments.  Ten therapists in the medical spa are highly trained and experienced in the use of lasers, ultrasound and radio frequency therapies.

"I came from New York to have the Erbium laser for my face," says Janie."As a native New Yorker, Janie was also somewhat skeptical about traveling south of the border for cosmetic surgery, but did her research and checked and verified certifications of the surgeons and staff at Perfection. "I found that Dr. Cepeda had all the credentials that the top New York plastic surgeons have. His attention to detail is excellent."

Like Jessica, Janie was pleasantly surprised by the smooth traveling process and services she received after accessing PlacidWay for resources and information regarding travel packages to Perfection Medical Spa in Cancun. Jayne was even picked up and dropped off for her appointments at the facility from her nearby hotel. "The personal attention they gave me meant a lot to me. They were genuinely caring and devoted professionals and I can't be thankful enough."

Dr. Alfonzo Gonzalez Cepeda offers over 20 years of experience as a medical surgeon as a partner of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and the Latin American Federation of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, in addition to fellowships and associations in numerous other organizations and associations.
"We're proud to offer excellent, certified and experienced services to domestic and international travelers seeking affordable, and accessible medical care," says Pramod Goel, CEO and Founder of PlacidWay, an international medical care provider. "This is what it's all about. Offering individuals more power, choices and options when it comes to their medical care."

More Americans and international travelers are discovering the benefits of Perfection Medical Spa and Plastic surgery, much like Jessica and Janie have. Enjoying not only one of the most exotic tourist vacation spots in the world, women like Jessica and Janie also benefited from life-changing procedures that didn't break their budgets.
