Traveling to Hope4Diabetes Medical Center

The main mode of transportation for out of state or out of country patients is by air. Please make your flight arrangements with the airline of your choice; if you need assistance in this process our patient service coordinator will help you. Your flight destination is San Diego International Airport. When you arrive at the airport, our transportation representative will greet you at the baggage claim department, load your belongings, and transport you to our facility. At completion of treatment, when it is time for you to leave our facility, our transportation representative will drive you to San Diego International Airport for your return flight home. If you are traveling from overseas the Los Angeles International airport (LAX) may be a better choice for you, in which case our transportation representative will pick you up there for a fee of $150 USD.
