plastic surgeon in colombia you can find a whole bunch of them, and all prices too. it depends on what kind of surgery you are going to have done. what kind of surgery are you planning for yourself?

Please anyone? I am from Miami, and I need some help with this. Anyone know a good plastic surgeon or hospital that they can give me info on. I am not familiar with anything over there. And I'd like a starting point for my research. Please help!

good ones that I've heard about are Dario Cabello, Ernesto Andrade, Johnny Mezher (that one is in Barranquilla), Rodney Murillo (in barranquilla too), Dario SIlva, Danilo Cardenas, Alan Gonzalez, Clinica La Font, I think that La Font is one of the best, I saw the facilities and they're awesome, they have a spa, and they have a hotel there where you can stay after the surgery and get treatments, it's a huge building and very luxurious and my mother-in-law who is a doctor, told me that the surgeon is really good...

You are right.. I do agree that references are best. Please e-mail me with the information at your convenience my e-mail address is pisces7599 at yahoo.com. I anxiously wait to hear from you.

Ask for references of... actual patients who actually had work done by this surgeon in the recent past. Get opinions from at least 2-3 different Surgeons for prices/opinions. Do not be swayed by the fact that the surgeon has a Fancy suit only. Ask where the surgery will be done and if its not in a hospital but in a clinic, ask the surgeon if he has emergency recesitation equipment on hand such as a Cardiac difibrillator, Oxygen Tanks(full)in case this is needed in your surgery. You have 4-6 minutes in a cardiac emergency only so don't wait until this moment tofind out he doesn't have it. Ask if the surgery is going be done under a Local or General anethesia-and will the Anesthesialogist be PRESENT at all times during your surgery. If the answer is NO to this and the aforementioned emergency equipment--Run-don't walk from this surgeon's office.

2montoyk says on Mar 31, 2005, 10:53:

true the best thing to do is to visit a couple of doctors in the same area, ask q's and make an aducated decision then, what worked for me may not work for u.

miamimike says on Mar 31, 2005, 11:56:

You need to know... the RIGHT questions to ask--and if the answer is no to the above emergency equipment, anesthesiaologist, recent patients ect. This is not the Surgeon for you(or anyone else). Do not be swayed or impressed by a Fancy Office or the Cheapest prices-often this is a Ploy or Come on.

claudia82 says on May 3, 2005, 08:47:

Jozette In what city? There are many in every city...In Cali I've heard that the best one is Corpum and Rostrum... A clinic that 5 plastic surgeons own...I've nevr had job done so I haven't gone thru that but i know 2 of the doctors and they are highly recommended here (Dr. Triana and Dr. Barbato)

Where to stay while having surgery in Cali Many Americans having plastic surgery done in Cali stay at Cali Plaza Hotel while recuperating, because it is American owned and most everyone staying there is from USA. Cali Plaza has apartments and hotel rooms. The owner and manager speak English and are very helpful. Many clinics refer their patients there. You can view the hotel and info at www.caliplaza.com
