Testimonials

Dr. Alejandro Correa - Plastic Surgery
In February 2009, while I was on holiday visiting some friends in Bariloche, Argentina, I decided to get a full facial lift with Dr Alejandro Correa at Cedyt. The place was fantastic and very comfortable. Anesthesia was spectacular; I had never had such a good anesthesia application in Norway. Dr Correa post operatory follow-up was very satisfactory as well. I am sure that many more Norwegians, including myself, will come back to CEDyT soon.

Dr. Juan Manuel Bonina – Gynecologist
On Friday 24 July, 2009 I was operated at CEDyT by Dr. Juan Manuel Bonina. After several diagnosis studies that Dr. Bonina carry forward, he found two polyps in my uterus which was necessary to operate. I was very scared because it was the first time that I would be surgically intervened but I finally accepted the challenge. Since I got into CEDyT that 24th of July I felt accompanied and contained by the whole group of professionals; the administrative team, the anaesthetist, the nurse, Dr. Bonina and the rest of his team. The attention was excellent; there are no words to explain how good patient care at CEDyT is. I must also highlight and say thank you for the high level of human qualities that they have.

Dr. Pablo Yoshihara – Orthopedist
On 20 April, 2009 I had an arthroscopic knee surgery at CEDyT with Dr. Pablo Yoshihara, MD Orthopedist. I would like to say thank you to Dr Yoshihara’s dedication, concern and personal follow-up on my surgery. About CEDyT I must highlight not only the comfort and high level of its facilities, but also the kindness of all their employees, from the receptionist and directives to the surgical team, who were very helpful before and after the surgery. I hope they continue on this way, because all these details are at the utmost importance when you consider entrusting your health to a medical team.

Awards & Media Coverage

Local Attractions

Why Argentina?
In recent years Argentina has significantly increased its status as an international medical provider. The incentive to attract and please foreign patients has lead to the development of an impressive infrastructure of medical equipment and facilities that meet and often surpass international standards.

Argentina's popularity as a medical tourism site was solidified in 2002, when the country as a whole began to float its currency. As a result, medical treatment in Argentina became more affordable for international patients.
Cosmetic surgery is the most popular operation sought in Argentina. First-rate procedures performed by highly trained professionals can be purchased at a fraction of the cost of the same procedures on US soil.

Why Bariloche?
San Carlos de Bariloche, usually known as Bariloche, is a city located in the north Patagonia, situated in the foothills of the Andes, surrounded by lakes (Nahuel Huapi, Gutiérrez Lake, Moreno Lake and Mascardi Lake) and mountains (Tronador, Cerro Catedral, Cerro López). It is famous for skiing but also known for sight-seeing, water sports, trekking and climbing. Cerro Catedral is one of the most important ski centers in South America.

Tourism, both domestic and international, is the main economic activity of Bariloche, all year around. The main ski station is the one at Cerro Catedral. During the summer, beautiful beaches such as Playa Bonita and Villa Tacul welcome sun-bathers and some brave lake swimmers (the waters, from melting snow, are always very cold). The fishing season is another great attraction. Bariloche is the biggest city of a huge Lakes District, and serves as a base for many excursions in the region. Trekking in the mountains, almost completely wild and uninhabited with the exception of a few high-mountain huts operated by Club Andino Bariloche, is also a popular activity. The city is also famous for its chocolates.

Bariloche has an international airport with direct flights from Santiago de Chile (Chile) and Sao Paulo (Brazil). It also has several daily flights from Buenos Aires and other main cities in Argentina.

By choosing Cedyt to get your treatment you will have the unique opportunity of receiving a world class medical service provided by highly trained professionals and then enjoy a vacation in one of the most beautiful places in the continent.
