First, the distinction between "working in a hospital" and "working for a hospital."  

 

The degree to which a physician works in a hospital depends on the specialty. For example: neurosurgeons, trauma surgeons, and thoracic surgeons perform most of their services in hospitals, while allergists and dermatologists typically see patients in their offices.   Physicians in any specialty may work for a hospital or not.

 

Just as in the US, in Mexico physicians can work IN a hospital and FOR a hospital. There are four primary employment structures for physicians in the US:

Although most physicians are in private practice, you may find some who also offer their professional services to a hospital as part of the hospital’s staff.  

 

When a patient goes directly to the physician’s private practice, the patient can expect:

 

1. First-hand attention and customer service

 

2. Direct contact with the medical team of experts

 

3. By not having a “middle person”, such as a booking service which most of the private hospitals have also in Mexico, the physician offers better deals in prices (savings of up to $2000 or more on certain procedures), surgical packages, etc. By going directly to the physician’s office (bypassing the hospital’s switchboard), you are sure to get a better price and the extra added value for your money.
