Hospitals & Medical Centers
Acapulco is home to many well-equipped and modern hospitals. Let's hope you don’t need one if you’re here for only a week or two on vacation. But, if medical help is needed, you will be well attended. The hospitals are affordable by US standards, and the physicians and professional nursing staff are well trained. Additionally, Mexico City is less than four hours’ drive away, so that specialists of all sorts are relatively close at hand.
