With Dr. Fulvio Correa I had the best experience. I traveled from the USA and I could not be happier with the service I received from the consultation until the post-operative care. The English coordinator, Yarima, has done a fantastic job keeping up to date with all the information about every step of this journey and making sure all of my questions and concerns were resolved. Dr. Fulvio treated patients wonderfully, he said hello with a big smile, and he was very nice to me. He listened to my goals and told me which were more realistic ones. He also gave me good advice for future options. He made sure to put my safety as his top priority and to assume the least risks possible, which I really appreciate. His English was very clear and I was able to understand everything without the need for an interpreter. The staff made sure I was comfortable when we started the procedure and then, they were great during my whole experience in the recovery room. They made sure I had a nice temperature and my pain was controlled. The recovery house is beautiful and it counts on an excellent staff. They make sure all of your needs are being satisfied. I highly recommend this practice and hope to come back and use it again for other future procedures.
The best surgeon in Cartagena! Mine is Dr. Fulvio Correa, an excellent doctor and human being! Ever since day 1, he made me feel very confident in the process!I am very satisfied with the job he did.
My case: I came to him with a lot of excess skin because I had formerly undergone a bariatric surgery in which I lost 140 pounds and as a result of that I had a lot of excess skin left. This doctor made a work of art out of my body, I got incredibly stunning! He gave me back the self-confidence and self-esteem I had already lost! Besides, he has a wonderful team, the doctor, my advisor Yarima, who was with me the whole time resolving each one of my concerns, the Recovery House staff “showed off”, they took care of me like a queen, the nurses, the cook, the stylists, everyone! I would definitely choose them a thousand times more!1,000% RECOMMEDED ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
