The doctor

Dr. Juan Martínez Caamaño

An orthopedic surgeon in Tijuana — and, above all, someone who listens to you and explains things calmly.

His story

The boy who fixed watches

Dr. Juan Martínez Caamaño grew up surrounded by orthopedics: he's the son of an orthopedic surgeon. As a boy, his thing was fixing — watches, radios, any electronic gadget that landed in his hands. That curiosity to understand how things work, and to bring them back to life, never left him.

The boy who fixed watches is today the surgeon who repairs bodies. And that same instinct — to build and to solve — is what led him to found Baja Orthopedics.

How I understand care

Honesty, first

I believe in honesty above all. Not every problem needs surgery, and when there's no need to operate, I tell you so clearly.

First I listen and understand your case. I explain the real options, calmly and with all the time you need, so you decide with information — never blindly.

And if surgery is the path, I'm with you every step of the way, before and after.
