I had an abdominoplasty with Dr. Safadi Polanco and both he and his team were excellent. The anesthesiologist, Cesar Tejada, was also attentive, available, and highly experienced. I recommend them with my eyes closed.
María Capellán
My experience with the Doctor was excellent—the best doctor. I recommend him 100%, and so does his team.
Very attentive, he is always aware of and looking out for his patients.
The Clinic is super; it looks like a 5-star hotel—clean and everyone is very kind.
