Cosmetic Surgery Costa Rica

Less Expense Without Sacrificing High Standards

Costa Rica plastic surgeons are considered to be among the best in the world! But you don’t have to take our word for it.  William C. Roberts, M.D., Editor and Chief of Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, wrote with regards to plastic surgery and cosmetic surgeons in Costa Rica, “Some of the patients having plastic surgery procedures in Mexico as well as in Costa Rica are citizens of the USA who travel south of the border because of the excellent reputation of plastic surgery there and the lower cost compared with that in the USA.”

In response to the World Health Report 2000, Columnist Thomas A. Pearson (Rochester Review), wrote regarding health care in Costa Rica: “America likes to be No. 1–in military, economic, and even sports confrontations. So, it came as a shock that America ranked 37th among the nations of the world in the performance of its health systems, according to a recent World Health Organization report.” In the same report, Costa Rica ranked above the U.S., and ranked 25th in performance while the U.S. ranked 72nd.

Mr. Pearson went on to state: ”World Health Organization findings are consistent with many statistics suggesting that America lags behind countries spending much less money on health care. For example, the life expectancy for American men now ranks 25th; countries such as Costa Rica and Cuba rank higher.”

Health Care Infrastructure Dedicated to Quality and Accessibility:

There are more than 30 government hospitals in Costa Rica, to go along with over 250 clinics spread throughout the country, with the Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (CCSS) at the forefront and providing low-cost health care services to the general population of Costa Rica since its inception over 60 years ago. CCSS is also available as an affordable option to foreign residents or visitors who only have to pay a small monthly fee.

Private health care in Costa Rica offers the advantage of costing much less (usually around $40.00 to $50.00) than an average office visit in the United States. You can enjoy similar savings among dentists in Costa Rica and cosmetic surgeons.

The combination of high quality health care, state-0f-the-art facilities, highly trained doctors and medical personnel, and low prices has created a healthy environment for the people of Costa Rica, and it has allowed the country to take its place among the leading medical tourism destinations.
