Quick answer
From Chicago, you reach Longevity Clinic in Veracruz with one connection, through Houston (nonstop IAH–VER) or Mexico City, and Veracruz shares Chicago's time in winter. You send your records first, our physician designs your personalized protocol for free, and you travel only for a session of about 45 minutes.
For Chicago patients, a trip to Veracruz is also a break from winter. Chicago has one of the largest Mexican communities in the U.S., and care is available in English or Spanish.
