CIMA hospital in Costa Rica is a private hospital, not a government hospital. It was designed and organized by Americans. It is mostly used by Americans, either tourists or Americans who choose to live in Costa Rica. Costa Ricans have a higher life expetancy than citizens of the U.S.A. It has an excellent staff of doctors and specialists many of whom were trained in the U.S. and Britain. The hospital is fully compatible with North American standards, having state of the art equipment including MRI, CT, Xray, ultrasound, endescopy, full service lab, 24 hour pharmacy. It provides world class care in specialties such as orthopedic, cardiac, spinal, neuro, bariatric, plastic surgery, gynecology, pediatric, ent, dermatology, gastroentology, oncology, urology, as well as six specialized clinics. It was originally affiliated with the Baylor Univ. Medical Center, and is now operated by the International Hospital Corporation headquartered in Dallas. It is accredited by our Dept. of Veterans Affairs. Medi-travels, based in the U.S. ranks it as world class.
