I have just been a medical tourist in Costa Rica!
In the last few days I have enjoyed being a medical tourism patient myself here in Costa Rica!
After knee pain for some time in both knees I sustained a sports injury on Monday which left me unable to walk and I ended up in Emergencias at CIMA Hospital in excruciating pain on Tuesday. I’m very happy to report that the emergency system went smoothly and in english with the triage team, initial doctor consultation, ultrasounding and imaging and appointment with an orthopedic specialist to confirm a torn meniscus.
Yesterday I had an appointment with our wonderful Orthopedic surgeon – Dr Oscar Oeding, where he confirmed surgery was necessary to avoid further damage as I am soon to travel from Costa Rica and need to be in good shape also as I could not walk at all with the pain!
So today at 8am I had arthroscopic meniscus tear surgery with Dr Oeding at Hospital Clinica Biblica – again a very smooth process with a lovely english speaking team and I felt completely at ease with the whole process.
This experience reminded me once again what excellent health services and VIP patient care are available in our adopted country of Costa Rica, which is why we love to promote these professionals.
