WARNING MEDICAL TOURISM NIGHTMARE IN SAN JOSE COSTA RICA

[kimberly4064]

Don't risk this America !!!

That tends to happen when you put your medical tour in the hands of amateurs who don't really care about what really happens to the patient, is all about squeezing the money out of needy people. I just saw this swiss company that seems really nice, is called medicine brokers or something. my cousin in france says it was awesome, because they had an assistant in every language.

@Alex13andros The swiss company you spoke to may seem nice and your cousin might have got lucky. The point is, when you receive botched treatment abroad ( and many people do ) you are screwed period !

@kimberly4064 This is the company you guys are talking about.Choose Swiss quality next time. regards from Switzerland.

Costa Ricans charge gringos more than they charge their own for " EVERYTHING " including healthcare. Dental and other medical procedures are less expensive than in the United States. But, the risk is huge and soooooo many Americans are severly botched and or are killed in the hands of theses third world country so called medical professionals. It is simply not worth the risk to yourself or your loved ones period !!!

@kimberly4064 These video's are not here to gain sympothy. They are here as a warning to all those who are considering medical tourism abroad. Please, Please, Please don't take this risk !

I found that the National Hospitals in Costa Rica charge us gringos the same (or more) as you can get in the US if you shop around.

Kimberly I feel sorry for what has happened to you, it is embarrasing for CR. And you know what, he tried to rip off my friend from Georgia too, and he ripped off a guy from Montana right in front of her...he gave them in email price and assured work has been paid and to come back in 2 or 3 months  to finish it, and once they were here he said such and such has changed and he was asking $6k and $3600 to each of them..

[kimberly4064]

This wouldn't have happened at all if my dentistry was done in the United States. Unfortunately, Americans assume that dentists abroad have American ethic's and values.

I've seen this dentist on all kinds of medical tourism web-sites and I'm sure some are even United States based sites. Hell, he even made it on a local CBS News station to promote himself. He refuses to speak with the news station that did the story and they won't do a follow up unless he speaks to them again. Don't risk it !!!

This is a prime example of why you want to go through a reputable US company. When I went through Medical Tourism Connection everything was detailed, I knew about the risks before I went and was offered medical tourism insurance in the anomaly that something like this happens. Medical Tourism Connection has never had a bad outcome. I highly suggest for anyone considering medical travel to get a membership and do it right.

passing this on..hope you get better! Thank you for speaking out about this!

[kimberly4064]

That's great...

[ablack1000]

i found this so important (and frightening) that I added this to my favorites on my you tube channel.....thanks to you there will hopefully be alot less suffering by others!

[johnsonx19]

dang this scrares me now since i planned on getting some surgery done. I know you didn't deal with the surgeons but whats your advice? thanx in advanced

[kimberly4064]

I picked him because he guarenteed his work in writing. My video won't get pulled. I'm sure when you've seen other video's disappear it was because those people took their own video off. There is absolutely no reason to pull my video off. It's not rude or nasty, it simply states the truth. As a matter of fact I'm going to let my video attach to ad sence on here to make sure as many people as possible are warned.

@kimberly4064 Wow, this is why I mostly only eat fruit and veggies from the USA. Other countries have different STANDARDS. Please keep up the GREAT videos. Plus Fxcm.com is offering free $50.00 Fx accounts which can grow to over $1,000 in two months. PLEASE visit the site as I can help via email or twitter..I'm on gmail ..benblackstone7. I would write more but am very busy and know that at this point words don't help as u need help in paying these BILLS. Thanks for the Godly blessing at the end.

Thanks for sharing your experience and warning others.  Coto has a bad reputation. How did you find him/why did you select him over the other dentists? I hope as many people as possible see this before it gets pulled. I've seen complaints about Rosenstock Leiberman Clinic, a CR plastic surgery practice disappear off he internet. There are some excellent dentists in CR. Unfortunately Coto isn't one of them.

[kimberly4064]

I've become an activist in this matter. I'm screwed but, it's good therapy to help others not to go threw the same nightmare. Fortunately, not one person I talked to about Doctor Coto actually went to him for treatment. I couldn't sleep at night if that were the case. Thanks for your kind words ...

[ablack1000]

you poor kid, you've been thru the mill, haven't you? you're not to blame, you tried to get the care you needed and by refering others, you tried to help those without insurance and got burned badly yourself..........thank you for putting the warning out there. YOU ARE REALLY HELPING OTHERS! I hope it all gets better for you soon.
