Clinica Maciel

I remember a couple of years ago someone posted a "survey" they had done on the various medical facilities and I believe said that Clinica Maciel was expensive. Just thought I would share my experience earlier this week.

I had abdominal pain that kept me from sleeping all night and it kept getting sharper on the lower right so in the morning I knew I had to rule out the old appendix (It is fine). Had a complete checkup with Dr Maciel, an abdominal xray (they have new digital setup with computer), the lab across the street came and drew blood and I paid 800 pesos for it all!! ($57USD) Doctor Maciel arranged for a gastroenterologist to meet me there later in the day and his visit and a big pile of gastro meds at the farmacia were another 800 pesos.

The facility was clean and professional but personable. I was pleased with the experience.
