Abdominal Etching in Panama

My experience at IMPILO Plastic Surgery and Spa (in Panama City, Panama) far exceed my expectations. I first met Dr Luis A. Picard Ami in 2009 when he did a superb job on my breast reduction. Dr Picard-Ami is licensed to practice in USA and Panama, is fluent in English and Spanish, very accessible, down-to-earth, patient and so easy to communicate with. He promptly answered all my questions by e-mail and I mean ALL of my questions, including medical, logistical, covid and general. I was so impressed with his hospitality, professionalism, as well as my new beautiful breasts, I decided to return again in 2022 for a couple more procedures. I decided not to fear international travel as Covid is becoming more endemic and I am fully vaccinated. Another incentive was that the total cost of surgery, airfare and hotel, combined, was far less than I would have spent in the USA plus I was getting primo customer service. Additionally you can pay for everything in US dollars or with credit card. IMPILO Plastic surgery took care of coordinating all of my logistics from answering my pre-departure questions, meeting me upon arrival in Panama to checking into the hotel, getting my lab tests, to surgery and back again to my hotel room. I was traveling alone and was so happy when Dr Picard-Ami sent a nurse to see me in my hotel room to help with showering and dressing changes. I also had constant communications with everyone in IMPILO clinic, including the doctor, via WhatsApp, email and on my phone via Wi-Fi calling. The doctors, clinic, hospital and spa staff were all very approachable, kind, courteous, competent and professional while also very personable and welcoming. Most of the staff, I encountered, were bilingual too. The view from the doctor’s office was incredible as was the panorama from the hotel pool area. The whole complex was pretty chilly so don’t forget your cozy sweat suit and fuzzy socks! Fortunately, the hotel can reset your room temperature controls as you need. The free breakfasts were awesome with enough variety to tide you over for the entire day if you don’t feel like going out. The rooms were well equipped for cooking and comfort. The hotel, clinic, hospital and doctors’ office were very modern, clean and connected with the shopping mall, grocery store, pharmacy and everything you could need without even stepping outside. I had several different procedures during a 3 week period of time and am very pleased with Dr. L. Picard-Ami’s surgical skill, felt well cared for, safe comfortable and secure. I almost hated to return home! Mary, Florida USA

My breast implantation surgery was performed by Dr. Luis Picard-Ami Jr at the Panama Clinic. Process was fully explained in pre- surgery telephone consultations and in face to face consultation at the clinic. Dr. Luis Picard-Ami's expertise and experience as well as his approachable interpersonal skills, not only assisted me in choosing best option for me but also made me at ease throughout the whole process. His clinic is staffed with friendly and helpful personnel always ready to assist with anything you may need starting from beverage to booking hotel room and getting post op bra. Truly VIP experience
