Cosmetic Surgery
When it comes to cosmetic surgery, more and more people are choosing to leave the familiarity of North America to take advantage of what the tropical paradise of Cost Rica has to offer them. They have discovered that the costs of a round trip plane ticket, the surgery, and the recovery retreat combined, can add up to thousands of dollars less than what they are charged back home.
More importantly, is the realization that Costa Rica—often referred to as a third world country—has first rate surgeons, health facilities, and hospital staff. And Costa Rica is more than willing to meet the needs of out of country patients with established and emerging services of medical tourism agencies which arrange personal packages including flights, surgery, recovery retreat, activities and more. These can be put together to suit an individual and her partner’s needs and timelines.
Your Best Source for Reviews of Doctors
EXCLUSIVELY COSTA RICA!
But how does a patient go about choosing a surgeon? A surgical facility? An agency or recovery center in a place miles from home, one may have never seen? Where a different language is spoken? How can a patient be sure of her/his decision just by word of mouth, or a slick Internet ad? Cosmetic surgery is a huge commitment. It is extremely difficult to successfully sue a doctor in Costa Rica, and if patients need to come back for revisions from their first operation, it may be fine and dandy that the surgeon may not charge for the actual revision but he's not paying for the flight, the OR time, or the recovery retreat. So here is a chance to start educating yourself about Surgery in Costa Rica. The reviews you see are from REAL PEOPLE who have come to Costa Rica and have had their operations. They are telling you about their REAL EXPERIENCES for the sole reason to help out a fellow patient who is in your position. We hope that you will be kind enough to share your story with us when you have healed from your surgery.
We are building this website to be as helpful as it can be, with pertinent articles on plastic surgery, recovery retreats, dental procedures, an encyclopedic dictionary on relevant medical terms, forums, notices about what’s happening in Costa Rica of interest to medical tourism patients, and more.
Buena suerte mi amiga! Good luck, my friend!
