I got sick while in Mexico, so I got to experience their version of health care.

I went to this small clinic, where a doctor checked my temperature, blood pressure, eyes, ears, nose and throat. He asked a few questions about my symptoms and allergies, then wrote a prescription for 4 different medicines.

There was a pharmacy next door, where I bought an albuterol inhaler, a decongestant, antihistimine, and antibiotic.

This might look a little rustic compared to US health system, but it was professional, and sufficient, I am already starting to feel better—especially since the doctor’s visit AND medicine cost less than $20 USD.
