The Clinica Biblica Hospital in Costa Rica (currently one of the most popular medical tourism destinations), has released a new website providing direct access to its medical procedure expertise and services for international patients. High quality medical services, personalized attention and a significant reduction in costs are among their service highlights.

San Jose, Costa Rica (PRWEB) March 7, 2007 -- As a result of increasing costs in medical services provided in the United States and Europe, people have recently been drawn to visit countries abroad to have medical procedures done at a lower cost and comparatively same quality. In Costa Rica (currently one of the most popular medical tourism destinations), the Clinica Biblica Hospital has played a key role in the expansion of these offerings, and it has now released a new website providing direct access to its medical procedure expertise and services for international patients.

We are proud to say that our patients receive the most appropriate care delivered by knowledgeable, compassionate physicians who are among the leaders in their respective fields in Costa Rica
Guest Services Director, Lorena Morera explains: "For a long time the Hospital Clinica Biblica has been visited by patients from USA, Canada and some European countries to have cosmetic surgery, bariatric procedures, and cardiovascular treatments among others. In other cases, patients are healthy but they come to Costa Rica for a vacation and have their annual medical check up. In all cases, we have always made sure our guests receive a personalized service that will fit their particular needs. So our new website is a natural step towards evolving our high quality service, with all the necessary tips and tools that potential guests require before making a decision of traveling to Costa Rica for a medical procedure."

Hospital Clinica Biblica, a general hospital located in the capital of San Jose, was founded in 1929, and enjoys an excellent national and international reputation for quality care in many areas; including plastic surgery, eye surgery, weight loss surgery, and a wide range of outpatient services such as medical check-ups. A great part of its success has been due to its renowned quality of health care services provided, which is currently under a Joint Commission International certification process. The Hospital is also staffed by many dedicated -and US trained- physicians and surgeons. "We are proud to say that our patients receive the most appropriate care delivered by knowledgeable, compassionate physicians who are among the leaders in their respective fields in Costa Rica", notes Lorena Morera.

Additionally, the difference in cost for all procedures provided by the Hospital results in an inexpensive option, specially for people with no insurance or that cannot pay the high cost of healthcare in the United States. For example, a surgical breast enlargement in the US is on average $10,000, whereas at the Clinica Biblica the prices start at $4,000.

The new Hospital Clinica Biblica medical tourism website not only provides detailed information on each procedure offered, but also has travel sections to help you plan a complete trip to Costa Rica. Their online contact forms and chat service provide you direct contact with their Health Care Assistant Department, who can help schedule your medical procedures and medical appointments, secure lodging, and provide assistance with hospital admissions and financial transactions.
