Angeles hospital in Tijuana has performed over 350 CCSVI procedures in the last couple of years and we pride ourselves on being able to offer this procedure on an in-patient basis. In fact, we wouldn’t have it any other way! Many hospitals and clinics choose to treat CCSVI patients as outpatients but we prefer to keep our patients at the hospital for up to five days. This allows us to make sure you are making good progress and tolerating any medications well.
