Jaw tumor treatment in 12 Dentistry and Oncology clinics in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, and Nicaragua

Sani Dental was recommended to us by a neighbor whom had extensive dental work and seemed happy with the results. We were quoted a price in CA for some implant work extractions and a couple of crowns. We decided to give Sani a look at and see what their diagnosis would be and what work they felt needed to be done. The office was large and had small doors off this long hallway. There was many employees front and back offices and many patients waiting to be seen, seemed positive Right ? Well we felt Wrong, Yes they charged for the X-rays and Scan 150.00 which is fine because you can get the chip of them and it's yours to keep should you go else where. OK thats good. Once your done with that you sit in the long hallway again and wait to be called in to one of the many little exam rooms where the examiner doctor sits on one side and the assistant sit on another side and then documents what he was about to report from the exam. The doctor if that is what he even WAS never said hello never introduced himself never explained what he was going to do. He took a quick look exam told the assistant what he thinks showed a few pictures on the screen from our scans and then proceeded to print out the quote and price all done in less than 15 minutes. We spent longer in the hallway waiting 1 hour then with this so called doctor which we kinda think again was not even a doctor. We looked over the quote and said thank you and we will think about it. The feeling we both got from this dental office is it's a Cattle Call office, done by volume and not patient quality care and service. It was really quite disappointing and disturbing at the lack of customer service as there is so much competition there in LOS to choose from, but looking at the reviews here and seeing the good and the bad you can tell that their follow up care is not all that, and thats a valuable asset to have for patients willing to come back again and again. This office gave us the impression that they like being One and Done, take your money in and out you Go, Goodbye.Adios We realized standing there as we left its just not at all what we are looking for in excellent dental care which you CAN find in LOS ALGODONES. On top of all that the quote from Sani Dental was 800.00 more than the quote from our dentist in CA, and that came as a surprise to us, we had to LAUGH. Also there seemed a LOT of misc added charges included, really? We decided to have lunch in the plaza next door where the hotel was that they also own as well and the restaurant. We sat down and waited for 20 mins with no hello no menu no nothing, we finally left and went some where else to eat. As we left and walked out we see the Doctor ???? whom did our exam out side across the street we made eye contact smiled at him and he never even acknowledged we had been there 20 minutes ago, very strange. Conclusion for us is Sani Dental is Very disappointing. When you're going to invest 10K in dental work the feeling of being comfortable with any office should be very important. In fact while walking to the appointment, someone asked us where are you going we said Sani Dental, and I quote the man said there good but they use a lot of training doctors and you never see the same one. We found that interesting but still went with an open mind. OUR ADVISE Go with your gut do your homework and find the best dental group for you, and trust me there out there we found an excellent implant specialist just blocks away that showed a completely different patient experience and HA guess what ?? ALOT less money too.

I did my research before coming down from Arizona and felt really confident with choosing this place to do the work I needed. (My dentist in AZ told me I needed two fillings and a deep cleaning before I could get braces put on.) When I arrived in Mexico at the location the building and front desk people were all great, they did the consultation and told me I actually had 5 cavities. Okay let's fix them all. However once I sat in the chair it ended up being a nightmare. I don't believe I was numbed properly because I kept feeling pain in all spots she did my fillings but I sucked it up. I also now have a tooth she worked on that has been hurting me since that's never hurt prior. I was also supposed to receive a deep cleaning on all 4 quadrents, it's what I paid for but she never even touched the left bottom side of my mouth. Today I went to my regular, trusted dentist here in AZ and turns out the two cavities he wanted me to have filled were never even touch. He also told me that the 5 cavities I supposedly had were actually teeth stains &didnt need to be touched. ALSO turns out they didn't do the deep cleaning, all that was done when comparing my photos from before Mexico to after was they removed tarter. Very disappointing all around. I'm sure some dentist within this establishment are amazing however not the one I got put in a room with. I paid $640 to have fake cavities filled, a tooth ache & some tarter removed from my bottom front teeth.

Nothing but 5 stars for Sani Dental! Excellent patient care and satisfaction is assured all the way! Thank you to Dr Mendoza Sotto for taking care of my dental needs!

If you are traveling and have ever wondered about getting dentistry done in Mexico this is the place to go. I went during my vacation and the resort was very close. I messaged back and forth a few times to let them know what I wanted and to schedule timing. They were always responsive and set up shuttle pick up and drop off during my stay which was included for FREE. The staff were all lovely (especially Dra. Martha and her assistants Danna and Ivonne). The facilities were clean and I also spoke with return customers who had visited multiple times for years while on vacation to get various procedures done. The pricing was incredible compared to the US. They also have an ocean view! I recommend taking any x-rays or documentation if you had previous exams so they can review.

I’m so glad I decided to go to Cancun to get my teeth worked on! Ive always had spacing issues on my top 6 teeth. The reviews are just as amazing the people that worked there. I made the right choice in choosing them. From contacting them through the what’s app to the drivers (to/from appointment and airport), receptionists, and dentists! Everyone was so sweet and kind. They made me feel comfortable and were very detailed in their work! I’m looking forward to coming back in 6 months for a cleaning and another round of whitening! Shoutout to the staff: Dr Krishna - Assit: Nadia Dr Oscar Assit: Ana and Keila Dr Daniela Assit Yasuri Frontdesk Laura, Melanie and Michell Driver Erick and Alfredo Looking forward to continue business!

Had root canal and crown done! The entire team is super efficient, courteous, caring from start to finish! From front desk team ( Ana, Frida and Mohin)coordinating appointments and transportations to patient care : Dr. Gomez and Dr. Valeria were well versed and gentle on treating my root canal. Dr. gris is a perfectionist making sure the crown has both function and esthetic. Dental assistants Ellse and Luis are skillful and attentive . Patient comfort is their top priority which iam thankful for! Their facility is top notch, all high tech equipments imaginable ! In house lab is a plus! Last but not least, drivers take you from and to their dental office… please remember to tip your driver(s) and lastly , a thank you to the staff members is never outdated! Oh did I mention you get to enjoy the beautiful Cancun too!

If you want affordable quality dental work in Tijuana Mexico, this is the place. My wife had full mouth implants, uppers and lowers and surgery, and I had major work also. Hilda was awesome. I deal with a bad gag reflex, and feared going to the dentist, she made it a great experience and worked with me.I can’t say enough how great this place is.

Back in 2015, I embarked on what initially seemed like a daunting dental journey, traveling from Dana Point to Tijuana to visit Dr. Alex. My first interaction was fueled by caution, opting for just one filling to test the waters. As someone venturing into Mexico for the first time, I harbored uncertainties about the quality of care I would receive. To my relief, the work exceeded expectations. On returning home, my U.S. dentist examined Dr. Alex's work and praised its quality, boosting my confidence. Encouraged by this, I became a repeat patient, each visit reinforcing my trust in Dr. Alex's expertise. Over the course of several visits from 2015 to 2017, I had multiple crowns replaced. With each procedure, my confidence in Dr. Alex's skills grew. What stood out most was his commitment to perfection, ensuring that every aspect of the dental work was faultless. Reflecting on my experiences, I realize how fortunate I was to find a dentist who not only provided top-notch dental care but also made me feel increasingly assured with each visit. Dr. Alex's professionalism, skill, and dedication to patient satisfaction turned what could have been a daunting experience into a positive and rewarding journey. Highly recommended for anyone seeking quality dental care with a personal touch.

Hi, the best dentist in Baja, specially my Dr Andres Lopez, great attention and he knows about my diagnostics and treatment plan, i’m very very happy about his service. I recommended him 👌🏻

My experience at Guatemala Dental was very pleasant. The staff was professional and accommodating. Dr. Guerra Sr did a wonderful job and I am very satisfied with the results. I can smile again! It was very emotional when I saw the results… they were incredible.

I had a crown done and it was just like going to the dentist in the USA. English is spoken and I was taken care of very well. The office will help you find accommodation, and help you with transportation. The office has the latest technology and is located in an upmarket area of the city.

I went to Guatemala Dental to have a full mouth implants, I really love this place I ended up with a beautiful smile. All the personnel in the clinic are very professionals and very polite, I definitely will recommend it to any one that needs dental work.

Thanks to Dr Alan Antillon and his team for placing my three implants. Dr Alan is truly an expert with finesse to his work. From the airport to the chair, and the best for local accommodations. Guatemala City is very accessible from the US, and the area is a fantastic vacation destination. I love my new bite and grind!

Dr. Antillon went out of his way to ensure I had an appointment as quickly as possible and x-rayed the teeth I had concerns about. In my case, it turned they did not need treatment, but he assured me that his team would be available should something arise. I call that excellent customer service!

Dr. Antillon and his staff were excellent during my visit to perform my dental appointment. The complete experience, from setting my appointment, reminder, arriving at the clinic, and the appointment itself, were all smooth and with superb quality and service. I recommend Dr. Antillon to anyone looking for a great dental appointment experience.

I tried to set an appointment to see a surgeon. Front desk hang up on me cuz my spanish is not great.

I put five stars just so everyone can see this Dr. Jorge Eugenio Valdez Garcia who works at el Zambrano hellion is doing research with an implant in my eye and he is harassing and threatening to have some one shoot me and has hired someone to stalk me and that person has been breaking in to my truck and has been stealing from me he is trying to scare me they grafted the implant in my eye without my consent and he has been doing research with my eye for several years now!

Great service and awesome doctors, we visited Dr José Ángel Garza Cantu

What a shame that in a Hospital like San José you cannot buy a catheter and emergency medicine at the Pharmacy. As a town pharmacy, it was closed at midday because the person in charge “went out to eat.” AND THERE WAS NO ONE TO ATTEND. And the people I asked saw everything as very logical… “he went out to eat and was probably late.” How little brains. A Pharmacy in a hospital in broad daylight must be open so it is a good idea to have another person stay to serve while someone else goes out to eat. It really took a long time and I had to go look somewhere else (CUAN) because the medicine and the tube were URGENT.

woke up there after a slosh of a sesh, now missing my left nut, right kidney and both my big toes and pinky toes. i have no ballence now

Best hospital in the world!!

Good attention

They take good care of patients, they are treated as they should be. The facilities are well maintained. The parking lot is ample.

Madhouse, worst service at ER

My cousin went to this hospital to have this removed since it went through her finger. Doctor Carmona Estrada Mayra attended my cousin and told her that anesthesia was not needed, plus she was really busy. My cousin sat through all that pain of having it pulled out with no pain reliever. That doctor had also told her that even if she opened up her finger that she wouldn’t put no anesthesia on it. After all that pain my cousin went to another hospital because there was a broken piece of the object still left in her finger. This Doctor needs to go because she couldn’t even perform this normal task to help out her patient.

Bad experience at this hospital with doctors not being honest and staff is rude. Their not helpful at all and there just out for your money. They have no true concern about your family member. They lie about how the patient is doing and if anything they make them worst to your expense. It was truly heartbreaking to realize how bad this hospital is. Don’t take your family members here. Find a different place.Funny thing is that I wrote a detail review of everything that happened and for some reason it’s not on here. Point is don’t trust them with your love ones. Question what there doing and why. Research to see if they even need certain things they ask you for and what the purpose of it is.

A lot of patience in the external consultation Archive and in the consultations themselves, sometimes the doctors do not arrive or they assign others who should not and you have to make an appointment again in the Archive. But they are no longer scheduling APPOINTMENTS for 2023 because they don't have a 2023 Agenda. Well that's what they say...

Make an appointment, it's simple... the specialist never arrived, they send you a message to ensure punctuality out of respect for the doctor's time but they do not respect yours, they left me waiting for about 30 minutes, they charge the consultation at $1500, not cheap for the service. a private clinic, anyway, thank you!

The doctor was very thorough. And a great help. Highly recommend this clinic.

I am an American on an extended vacation here in Mexico City and I saw Dr Luis Villalobos Perez. Hands down he was the best doctor I have ever seen in my fifty years of life. He truly took time to discuss my health problem and my history and he gave me a thorough physical exam, I feel like I have not had an actual physical exam since I was in high school. It is such a blessing to have found Mediland! Great staff, clean and modern facility in a beautiful neighborhood Don’t hesitate to go here if you are sick!

Facilities are very clean, the staff is professional, and respectful! Best in the country. Also the food in the cafeteria is very good.

It is a expensive hospital, but it is worthy. My 1 year old baby was diagnosed with testiculo tumor, he needed to be operated ASAP. Now he is 100% out of danger. Thanks God and the doctors. Never felt more comfortable in a hospital.

I have been a patient at Vivian Pellas for over 9 years in that time I have had 4 surgeries and my wife had her hip replacement done there. My past experiences have been good up until a little over a year ago. Went in for what I thought was hemorrhoid surgery. According to all my papper work which I still have but instead I received a sphincterotomy and no hemorrhoid present at the time. Be carefull there! Still having ongoing problems as a result

Excellent hospital. Excellent urologist Mario Gonzales rooms to perform glass-glass and others🤗

I’m providing a unbiased and true experience of my most recent hospital visit at UNIBE in Costa Rica. I travel frequently to Costa Rica and had the most pleasant and professional experience on two previous occasions while be admitted to the hospital for long term stays from the doctors to the staff members this is why I chose to return. Unfortunately my most recent experience was negative to say the least from my initial checkin to being discharged as I was appalled with the treatment and level of service provided. The intake personal have absolutely no business being placed into these positions as they lack the customer service skills interacting with the public as it appeared they are unhappy providing even the most basic questions to the patient. Upon being released from my procedure the doctor or not even a staff members took a minute of there time to discuss my diagnosis or even medications if required in person. I was just given a piece of paper which I had so many questions as I was unfamiliar with the medications required and diagnosis provided. I have been acclimated in other hospitals throughout the world upon completing a procedure the doctor or staff member would meet you in person afterwards and discuss there findings also any medications if required even if it’s a minute or two unfortunately this didn’t happen. That particular weekend I had been enduring many unpleasant symptoms as I drove two hours to visit the hospital thinking I would have a positive interaction unfortunately this didn’t become to fruition as I was deeply disappointed. I then asked the admitting personal upon being discharged if I can discuss my results with the doctor or any staff member they said I would need to set an appointment with the doctor and pay additional fees for another date. I was beyond disappointed and infuriated as I would need to return another day to drive another 4 hours in total. Once again the behavior displayed by the admitting personal was unacceptable and discourteous. This will be my last time visiting this establishment as the level of service provided was unacceptable especially of a paying patient. I recommend future travelers or foreigners utilize other hospitals in the area which hopefully would have more of a bedside manner when someone is ill and can conduct themselves in a professional manner.

It is the first time in my life that I pay for parking in a hospital where I am already paying for the service of the place.
