HealthCare Resources Puerto Vallarta Spring News Pamela Thompson - PVNN
| For those who live here year-round there are plenty of things to keep you healthy and happy this Spring. | | As the "high season" winds down and we head in to Semana Santa-Easter Vacations, many "snowbirds" are returning to Canada-US. But, each year, there are more and more people that are here full time, which is great! To those leaving for the summer, please stay healthy and we look forward to seeing you again next fall. To those continuing on here, let's enjoy being in paradise and take care of one another!
Due to Semana Santa coming soon, I have scheduled the clinics for early in the month - too much traffic otherwise!
Skin Clinic April 1, 2009 (no joke!) $250 pesos Check your skin from head to toe! By appointment only.
Women's Health Clinic April 2, 2009 $775 pesos Complete exam including pap smear, ultrasound, consult with a fabulous, female bi-lingual OB-GYN. By appointment only
Mammogram Clinic April 7, 2009 $800 pesos Includes mammogram, ultrasound if needed, physical exam by physician. By appointment only.

General HealthCare Information
Have a one-on-one chat with us regarding what healthcare is all about here in Vallarta. Let's check your current insurance to see if you are covered here, register with the consulate if necessary, receive contacts, set up with a personal physician and answer all of your questions! No charge. (except that we request a small donation of toothpaste, soap, men's deodorant, etc for New Life Mexico.) By appointment only.
For any of the above clinics, please contact me at pamela(at)healthcareresourcespv.com to answer questions, set up an appointment.
OTHER STUFF
April 4, 2009 Join in for a fabulous evening of fun, food, drink and entertainment as funds are raised for "Sally's Corner" at Los Mangos Library. This will be held at the stunning Villa Mandarinas, one of the most stellar villas in Puerto Vallarta. Tickets are $500 pesos each and may be purchased via myself or Gretchen Dewitt at gretchen.dewitt(at)gmail.com or at Cassandra Shaw's shop on Basilio Badillo. Transportation provided from Cassandra's. This will be the final grand event of "the season" and a must-do! Sally was dedicated to instilling the love of reading to children. Sadly, she passed away a few months ago but her dream will continue at the local library with a special area just for kids. As well, a volunteer program to provide various programs to local kids will be formed during summer - and I am looking for volunteers! Please contact me if you are able to assist.
April 21, 2009 5 pm to 7 pm Workshop featuring Dr. Judy Krings "NIX NEGATIVITY: POWER UP POSITIVITY!" Cutting edge research. Success Secrets Revealed! Judy is a dynamo whirlwind (check her out on Google!) Feeling a bit negative after a busy high season? Join us for this workshop and get out of that funk! Location: Los Mangos Library Cost: $100 peso donation (goes to Los Mangos) Reservation only.
We Need Shoes! The boys at New Life Mexico are desperate for school shoes and tennis shoes. If you are able to assist, please contact me for details (sizes, etc.) We will make arrangements to pick them up from you. New only, por favor.
Check out our Local Library! If you haven't been to Los Mangos Biblioteca, do so! Over 4,000 books in English, ongoing classes, computers available - to name a few things. I will be doing a quarterly newsletter on the various activities. If you would like to receive this newsletter, please let me know and I will add you to the mailing list. Remember summers when you were a child, hanging out at the library and escaping to a magical world with a book? You can still do it!
If you are one of the few who have yet to see BanderasNews, make it a point to check it out every couple of days! BanderasNews.com is the premiere website for what's going on here in Vallarta, Mexico and the world. It's fabulous and has many daily updates. Please click on the HealthCare Resources icon to see our articles!
Hacienda Jalisco The perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of Puerto Vallarta. As the HOT season approaches, remember that it's always nice and cool in San Sebastian. We now do lunch with advanced notice in case you just want to go for the day! For more information, visit HaciendaJalisco.com.
People ask me all the time, "where do you get your clothes?" Always, always at Encore Boutique. Fabulous items at a fraction of the cost of the "new stuff." New arrivals daily so check it out soon - before I buy them up! Lazero Cardenas #584.
