Nueterra Global Alliance (NGA) is pleased to welcome Marina Del Rey Hospital to its international collaborative of healthcare partners, providing unique opportunities for inbound and outbound medical exchange patients. Marina Del Rey Hospital is located in the Greater Los Angeles Area, and provides highly-focused patient care in the areas of spine, weight loss, orthopedics and minimally invasive surgery. It is the first Southern California-based hospital to join NGA.

“Partnering with Nueterra Global Alliance is a perfect fit for Marina Del Rey Hospital. In addition to offering a staff of world-renowned surgeons, we are already a prime international destination for medical tourism due to our beautiful location near the beach and proximity to Los Angeles International Airport,” says Kevin Nelson, executive director, Spine and Orthopedics. “Being a focused, boutique surgical hospital allows us to provide the concierge-level of care required to meet the unique needs of a patient who is traveling from another country to receive care.”

The highly acclaimed specialty hospital holds Joint Commission International accreditation, Blue Distinction® Certification from Blue Cross Blue Shield and ASMBS Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence® (BSCOE) designation from the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program. In addition to the four primary specialties, Marina Del Rey also provides acute medical services and 24/7 emergency room care.

“The doctors at the Marina Spine Center treat everyone from professional athletes to everyday people from all over the world, and provide them with the same level of first-class care,” says Robert G. Watkins, IV, MD, co-director of the Marina Spine Center. “We look forward to strengthening our international relationships and building new alliances so that we can offer more patients the option to be treated by our expert doctors.”

With strong emphasis on an intimate care setting and the accommodation of medical travel patients, Marina Del Rey Hospital is pleased to offer comprehensive concierge services through an onsite Patient Liaison and Hospitality Coordinator.
