It’s been exactly one year since my treatment at CMN Hospital, so to me, my review is very solid reference to those looking for a treatment facility. I didn’t want to write it too soon, so here is my review of this facility. When I arrived in Mexico, the process was simple. I flew into Yuma and right outside the terminal I was greeted by a representative of CMN, she was driving a clean and brand new vehicle and spoke fluent Spanish and English. We started our journey to the hospital, it was easy to go through the border with their fast access pass they were able to obtain for their patients. Arriving at CMN I remember looking around the small quaint town and immediately fell in love with my surroundings. It was calm and peaceful area, the facility has a small outside patio for us as patients to visit during our stay with them. When I went upstairs, the wing I was staying in was dedicated to patients like me, we were secluded and it was wonderful. I had my own private suite, with my own TV, my own AC unit, and my own full bathroom. It was very quiet, very clean, and very comfortable to say the least. I was greeted by the CMN staff, everyone was very kind and compassionate towards me. All the staff spoke fluent English and Spanish. The staff communicated every treatment very thorough and answered any questions I had regarding the treatments, honestly anything in general. The first week was a little bumpy for me, I had a lot of doubts and my mind wasn’t in the right place. After all I have been fighting with a disease and an illness for so many years that I became bitter and felt like there was barely any hope to get better. On top of that, as we started the treatment I started having flair ups, migraines, throwing up, and just felt like crap overall. I knew that meant my body was responding to the treatment, so I was patient with myself. During that time the staff made me as comfortable as possible, they are with you 24 hours a day, everyday, we are never alone on our healing journey. Moving on to the second week, I started feeling better, I started getting more and more energy and was attending group therapy and individual therapy to help me mentally as well. This hospital focuses on mind, body, and soul and as we heal we must be able to heal all three aspects. The daily routine was wake up around 7am start treatment until around 8/9pm daily, no days off, which is great for us because that is why we are here - to heal! The meals are outstanding, they are made fresh daily and tailored to what you like and what you don’t like while encompassing healthy eating - I felt like I was at a 5-star resort the way they treated me and fed me. On my downtime, I would visit the community room. In this room they had a couch, art therapy, yoga, small exercise section, and a television. Some days I would paint, other days I would do yoga, and a few days I peddled on the bicycle. During the weekdays, I was visited by Dr Payan who is very compassionate, loving, and passionate about his patients. He would explain the next steps in the treatments, answer any questions I may have, explain lab work to me, and was willing to do any additional lab work necessary that I may wanted done to double check any doubts I did have. During the night and on weekends, I was visited by Dr Garcia. He was a sweetheart, just like Dr Payan, and was very knowledgeable, caring, and passionate about his patients as well. I am wholistic and a naturalist, while I was there they were very respectful of my practices. There was a time I woke up with a piercing migraine, I was crying, and in severe pain, immediately a nurse came into my room and asked me if I wanted pain killers. I explained I was wholistic but the pain was to severe so I agreed to the medicine but ask for a very small dosage, the nurse had no issues with this and administered it via IV. I went to this facility for neurological Lyme Disease, prior to going I tried so many different protocols, herbs, western medicine, etc. Lyme would go away at times, but always creep it’s way back into my life after a few weeks. I spent so much money chasing a cure, chasing hope, chasing wellness.... now looking back I wish I would have made the decision to go to CMN sooner. It’s been over a year, I have not had any flair ups, perhaps I am in remission perhaps I did exactly what I wanted... I rid myself of the dis-ease, finally healed, and rather than finding a cure I focused on eradicating the disease. I couldn’t have done this without the help from CMN Hospital, not only did every single treatment help, but their gentle and kind approach did wonders. While you are here, do you part in the process, drink the tea, take your supplements, take the LDN dosages, be open minded, accept help, realize we don’t know all, eat the healthy food, and let the treatments do what they were intended to do - heal us. I recommend anyone that is struggling with the decision to reach out to me via email, I’m here for those that need help deciding if this is right facility for you. My email is
[email protected] reach out, I will always find time for you! It does not matter what disease we have, it all starts with our immune system and blood, and this is what they focus on while we are at CMN. While I was at CMN, other patients were there, but never more than 8 patients. I met an amazing women that was fighting cancer that was from the Netherlands, and two other women that were fighting cancer from the states. While I was there my staff included the cleaning crew: Raquel and Celia, my laundry crew: America and Rosa, my kitchen crew: Carmen, Elena, and Nadia, and the amazing nurse crew: Itzel, Karen, Marixa, Ishmel, Alma, Carlos, Erika, and Luis. I’ll leave this review with my favorite quote from the father of medicine, Hippocrates, “if someone wishes for good health, one must first ask oneself if he is ready to do away with the reasons for his illness. Only then is it possible to help him.”
