looking for any references to a doctor in Zihua who will treat orthopedic/arthritis issues. I am aware of those listed in the directory but wondered if there was anyone else in Zihua.
If there are no new doctors others than those in the directory,I would appreciate a recommendation from someone in the past two years.
Thank you.

I've got arthritis in a shoulder and saw Dra. Maria Zamora; She is a medical doctor, but not an orthopedic specialist. She's a rehabilitation specialist and is in charge of the rehabilitation center at Hospital General. I went there for physical therapy, but saw her at her own place: Centro del Rehabilitacion in El Hujal 755-554-8848 or 755-139-6408. She said there were no orthopedics in this town, so if I needed more than what she could offer I'd have to go to Morelia or Acapulco - not Z. At any rate, she's professional, thorough and you'll at least get good advice if not help with what ails you. Worth a shot.

I also went to Dr. Zamora several years ago for a series of appointments. She determined that I needed to be fit for orthopedics. My husband and I happened to be heading to Guadalajara (2nd largest city in Mexico) and there I was fitted for orthopedics. To this day, I wear them and have had no further problems with my hip arthritis.

What are the orthopaedics you were fitted for? A brace? Shoe inserts? Walking sticks? I just can’t picture what an “orthopaedic” is.

Possibly “orthotics”
