"Omg I had to walk to the nurses station for everything from a blanket to medication. They have no tv in the rooms. They take for ever. You have to wait 6-8 hours to get something done. Just go to a regular clinic in Barranquilla they are not as nice but they get things done."

"A safe and modern medical center. I traveled from the USA to find an orthopedist, and the one I chose is magnificent, kind, and gave me the treatment I was looking for for my knee: hyaluronic acid injections and PRP. Reasonable prices compared to other places in the country. I highly recommend it."
