Emergency Medical Transport • 24/7 Coordination
A medical emergency far from home is frightening. The fear isn’t just “Will I get help here?” It’s “How do I get back to my own doctors, my own hospital, my own country?” We answer both — with our own fast-response ground ambulances across Los Cabos and coordinated air ambulance transport home to the United States and Canada, with a medical team monitoring you the entire flight.
Three Tiers · One Call
When minutes matter, a quick local ride to the right hospital is the difference between a scare and a tragedy. Our ground ambulances reach you anywhere across Cabo San Lucas, San José del Cabo, the Tourist Corridor, the Marina, the cruise pier and the SJD airport.
Trained crew. English-speaking coordination. Direct hospital hand-off.
If the specialist care you need is in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey or elsewhere in Mexico, we arrange medical-equipped air transport with a clinical team on board.
IV access, oxygen, telemetry, physician or specialty nurse — never moved without monitoring.
Medical repatriation by air ambulance home to the United States or Canada — to a hospital near your family and your own doctors. Whether the destination is California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, the Northeast, or anywhere in Canada from Toronto to Vancouver.
Flight + medical escort + receiving-hospital hand-off + paperwork. In English. Start to finish.
Our coordination line handles every level of medical urgency. The most common calls we receive from tourists and their families in Los Cabos:
Step by Step · No Guesswork
One bilingual number. We answer, listen, and triage in minutes — not menus.
Ground ambulance to your location, or English-speaking doctor reviews remotely if appropriate.
Local ground, national air, or international repatriation — we recommend and coordinate.
Receiving-hospital hand-off in English. Itemized invoice for your travel insurer.
International air ambulance and medical repatriation typically run between US $25,000 and US $60,000 for a Mexico-to-USA or Mexico-to-Canada flight, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control explicitly recommends international travelers carry medical-evacuation coverage. The good news: most quality travel-insurance policies — Allianz, GeoBlue, IMG, Aetna International, Cigna Global, World Nomads, Manulife, Blue Cross Canada, and many others — include emergency medical evacuation and repatriation benefits, often with limits of $250,000 to $1,000,000. The catch: medevac claims require pre-approval from your insurer’s emergency assistance line, with the right medical documentation, in writing, fast.
That is exactly what we coordinate for you, in English, while you focus on getting better. We help you call your insurer, gather the medical reports they need, and arrange the receiving hospital so they can authorize the flight. We promise the process, not the result — every insurer has its own rules — but we make every step easier and faster than going it alone.
Verify your travel-insurance policy includes emergency medical evacuation and repatriation with at least $250,000 of coverage for Mexico.
It is the single most important line item for any traveler to Los Cabos. Without it, an air-ambulance flight home can cost out of pocket what a year's worth of premium would have covered.

Important medical note: For an immediate life-threatening emergency, call local emergency services (911 in Mexico) first. To arrange ground ambulance, national or international air ambulance, or medical repatriation home to the United States or Canada, call our 24/7 line and our bilingual team will coordinate every step.
