Questions patients actually ask
How do I get to Mexicali?
Mexicali is a land border crossing at Calexico, opposite Calexico, California. Two ports of entry operate here. Confirm with your clinic which one to use. Check the CBP border wait times page on the morning you travel, because the wait is the least predictable part of the day.
How do I check a specialist in Mexicali is board certified?
Ask which council certified them and for the certificate number, then look it up in the CONACEM public directory. Certification is a legal requirement for specialist practice in Mexico and runs five years, so the expiry date matters as much as the number. Every specialist listed here has both published, with the date the check was run.
Do I need a passport?
To re-enter the United States, yes: a passport, passport card, or an enhanced driver's licence from a state that issues them. Canadians need a passport. Going into Mexico is the easy part; the document is for the return.
