The Doctor, Eduardo Cartagena, was awesome, and my results were better than I expected them to be. I am 6 weeks out from surgery and still have some numbness but know that will go away over time. Can’t wait to get into that skinny bathing suit! Flat tummy, fat pads on thighs gone, rounded butt, small waist. Who could ask for more!
PlacidWay on the other hand provided some misleading information which created some problems once we arrived in Mexico, so DOUBLE CHECK all the information you are provided. We got it worked out at our expense (wire transfer fees) and everything proceeded from there.

PlacidWay connected me with my doctor in Warsaw Poland. My medical experience so far in that respect has been excellent.
I did not recognize the role that PlacidWay had in this process until I had completed treatment in Warsaw. All emails from PlacidWay were succinct and un-flowery. Because the medical experience thus far has been fine, at this point my experience with PlacidWay is also excellent.

The website and staff are extremely helpful ... friendly to the point information.
I was so sceptical in the begining if I would get all the info I needed and be understood.
But I must say am impressed with the level of English spoken and such well trained and polite staff.
No one is pushing you for ex when will you book. You give the customer to think it through.
So yes am so am pleased with the professional service offered.
Looking forward to visiting your country and solving my concerns.
Thank you very much.

Greetings,
I am a US citizen who lives overseas and needed medical attention. I highly recommend the services offered at Placid Way. As my request was quite unusual I was unsure of my options. The representative 'Paola de la Garza' contacted me right away after my inquiry. She was both professional, kind and prompt. She had scheduled an appointment and had all the details ready for me to review including pricing and hotel options.
Thank you Placid Way! I will use your service again!

Jan 01 2022Thank you so much for your help and information in arranging surgery for Tobe.

Although I did not have surgery with the doctor I spoke with, I cannot leave without thanking you for your details, your efforts and diligences to help me, I have no doubt of that and I am totally grateful and I apologize if I made you waste Time or lose some kind of remuneration. My eternal gratitud and may God bless you.

Feb 04 2017I was looking with different clinics Here on USA and in everywhere practically, I’ve been in USA for 2 years. Sometimes I’ve had to deal with services similar to yours. The people is annoying, they call and they call, making me feel uncomfortable. Or they don’t even call at all. And I’m talking about 20-30 thousand dollars in stake. They just don’t care. I can easily say that this is the best service I’ve ever had by far. You were kind, fast, attentive, provided me all the information I requested and you gave me time to think about this information. For money reasons I have to stay with my dentist. But you were great! PlacidWay fully recommended by me, your service was outstanding and unique.

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to PlacidWay who were responsible for my seeking out an incredible Orthopedic surgeon in Puerta Vallarta , Mexico. I had been suffering with right hip pain back in 2015 but all my doctor informed me was I had acute osteoarthritis and ordered analgesics. The pain wasn't so acute at that time but I noticed my leg would buckle periodically. By Christmas 2015 I was much worse and after Christmas holidays I returned to work at the hospital as I am a Registered Nurse. During January and February my pain worsened to the point I had to take sick leave. My doctor finally referred me to the hip/knee clinic. Analgesics were not effective but I ended up having to use crutches to get around and had no quality of life. I started to research on line and Dubhe Licup saw my inquiry and started to send me emails. She gave me all the information about the clinic in Puerta Vallarta and said she could even arrange a phone call with the Dr. I was so impressed and after talking with the Doctor I felt very comfortable and decided to go on faith to have my surgery. I had been on crutches for five months and felt is was the best thing I could have done for my body and truly the experience was amazing and I had probably better care in Mexico than I would have had in Canada. Dr Max Greig is an amazing surgeon so caring and kind and explained everything to me. I would highly recommend going through PlacidWay for any information on prospective surgeries, they are very professional and knowledgeable.

"Would like to share my experience with Liza at Placidway. I was searching for a cosmetic surgeon to perform liposuction on wanted the added benefits of saving money by going to Mexico for the procedure. Liza gave me several Dr's that were experts in the Cosmetic field. Send me their profiles so I could learn about each ones experience and choose the one I felt most comfortable with. She obtained pricing on my procedure and set up my consultation and subsequent surgery date. The icing on the cake was having her make our hotel accommodations!
I feel very comfortable talking with her about my cosmetic surgery needs and wants. Will always go back to Liza and Placidway to help with other procedures I feel confident in having. She's my go to person and always follows up and answers without delays. Big Thanks Liza

Oct 17 2017My experience with the company has been wonderful! I had a breast implants procedure and during my search, I found PlacidWay and sent them the request for additional information. Soon after my request, I received a call from them and had a pleasant conversation where they explained to me how the process will go and politely answered my questions. They have been a great help for me! I manage to decide which clinic I would love to go with, and I even got a help with preparation. My surgery was at the time, as we scheduled up front and doctor and nurses were really nice. Thank you a lot for everything!
