Congratulations!!! You are taking the first step towards your own medical care. If you are reading this, it means that you are considering a high quality -low cost medical procedure outside your country and you are looking for information on Latin American medical tourism destinations. This article will try to give you a quick look at four cities, scattered across Colombia, which make up some of the main destinations for medical travel in the country. 

Bogota

Hey, Thanks, Cindi, for posting your article on your own user profile.  I'm going to post it here, too, as we really enjoyed helping you out and enjoyed you as a person. 

Read the patient review, "First Time Dental Tourist Saves $30,000… and she’s shouting about it!"

My U.S. dentist told me I was going to need everything capped, that I’d need root canals, and that it was going to run me between $40,000 and $50,000 - OR that I could have all of my teeth pulled and dentures put in for a little over $12,000. 

What it did cost me for a full mouth restoration was $11,500, and after all travel expenses, including airfare and accommodations for nine days, my total out of pocket was $13,120.  That's a $30,000 savings!

I do have political views, of course, but this blog is about dentistry, dental tourism and Panama as a great place to go for dental work.

So when I read that President Obama opened up about dental care at a town hall meeting in Henderson, Nevada, I was really excited.

Will there be some breaking information that will bring relief to Boomers and the others who are being strapped by expensive dental work? Depends who you read.  The President’s supporters took the information and edited it to make him look good.
