There are 2 buildings: many offices, almost all specialties.
The heart diagnosis before OP at MedicalNet in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, evaluates cardiovascular fitness for surgery using coronary calcium scoring. This diagnostic check detects calcified plaques in the arteries to determine pre-operative risks. The process is handled by the specialized cardiology team from Medicina Cardiovascular Asociada (MCA).
The evaluation primarily uses a specialized computed tomography (CT) scan to identify calcium buildup in the coronary arteries. This procedure takes place at IMEDEC, the on-site specialized imaging center at the clinic. The results provide a detailed risk profile for patients preparing for major surgical procedures. The cardiology specialists at MCA interpret the images to provide clearance or identify potential heart issues.
Patients receive a cardiovascular risk assessment that guides the surgical team. This focused screening identifies specific heart conditions that might impact the safety of an upcoming operation. The entire diagnostic sequence is designed for efficiency within a single visit to the center. Interested patients can request a consultation for cardiac clearance through Bookimed.

The clinic has 22 specialists across multiple floors and dedicated outpatient care centers. It also features a Center for Outpatient Surgery (CCA MedicalNet) for same-day procedures.
MedicalNet treats a range of conditions through specialized departments:
These departments allow cross-specialty evaluation under one roof.
The MCA center provides sub-specialized heart care. Specialists address symptoms like chest pain, palpitations, and unusual fatigue. The unit covers clinical cardiology, electrophysiology, and cardiac rehabilitation. Oncocardiology is available for cancer patients who need heart monitoring.
Services emphasize prevention and risk identification. Specialists use the coronary calcium score to detect calcium buildup in arteries. This helps doctors guide care for hypertension and heart failure. Pediatric cardiology is also part of the center.
Uronet focuses on Specialized Laser Urology. Dr. Alcedo Fernández, Dr. Juan Caraballo, and Dr. Pablo Mateo treat prostate conditions and stones. The team also manages recurrent urinary infections, hormonal changes, and anatomic alterations. Laser techniques help improve outcomes in urological procedures.
The digestive health unit, CEED, provides direct visualization of the esophagus and stomach. Specialists use advanced endoscopy and AI-assisted tools for digestive diagnostics. These methods support accurate follow-up for gastrointestinal conditions.
MedicalNet uses multiple imaging methods to support diagnostic accuracy. On-site laboratories handle preoperative exams and routine checkups, so patients get results quickly.
Available diagnostic technologies include:
These tools let the medical team observe internal conditions for accurate diagnosis.
The center also includes Neurology, Rheumatology, and Nephrology. Women's health is supported through Obstetrics, Gynecology, and fertility care. Pneumology specialists offer advanced respiratory treatments on-site.
Having multiple specialties in one place streamlines diagnosis for complex cases. MedicalNet provides all imaging and laboratory support within its two towers.
