FAQ's

1. Is it is safe to travel to Colombia?

here. Upwards of 50 flights a day arrive here with passengers from the US and Europe. It is safer than most big US cities.

4. What surguries-treatments are available?

8. Where is Bogota ? And why Colombia?
Bogota is 3 hours air time from Miami and daily flights from NY, Atlanta, Houston, L.A. and Ft Lauderdale are just a little longer. Bogota is the capital city and the center for world class medical facilities. Most of the Doctors here are bi-lingual and have studied in the US. Colombia is the oldest and most stable democracy in S or Central America with a population of 44 million. Patients come to Bogota from all around the world to enjoy the Colombian hospitality, benefit from the low prices, and get first class medical treatment.

9. When can I return home?
Only after the Doctors have cleared you for travel. Your after care program here is excellent and you will recover quickly BUT your well being is our number one concern so the Doctors MUST clear you for travel back home. You will of course enjoy all Bogota has to offer in the meantime while you are healing.

10. How can the cost here be so much less than for a similar procedure than in the US?
In Colombia labor costs and housing costs are only a fraction of what they cost in the US. Also the US dollar gets you more than 2000 pesos here so you are the benefactor ! Take advantage of this opportunity.

11. What happens if after the "pre-surgery consultation " I add a new procedure or decide against a procedure that I have already paid for?
A new price will be negotiated and your account will be adjusted accordingly - you may receive a refund or owe more money. No problem either way.

12. What is the most important reason for me to travel to Bogota for my surgery?
Your surgery will be over in a matter of hours but your recuperation time might be weeks and you will be delighted in Bogota because the people here have time for you and really care about you. You will see this every day as staff members are available 24/7 and they are so cheerful when helping you. The time will fly by and you will be sad to leave but ever so happy to return home a "new person".
