    I traveled from the USA to Cartagena to visit Dr. Julio due to the expense here in the states. Dr. Julio and the team took great care in explaining everything to me prior to my trip so I was not coming in blind. Claudia put everything together and set me up with transportation and appointments. She is very thorough. The team is kind and helpful with everything that you need. The way they handled everything makes you a lot less nervous to travel. The Dr. was really attentive to the work he was doing and he took very good care of me. I am really excited for my 6 month visit. I will defiantly be back to finish my work up. The country is beautiful. The people are beautiful. The staff is outstanding and I greatly appreciate everyone there.

    From start to finish Dr. Julio Oliver & his team made this whole experience much more comfortable. My situation, was a dental bill I didnā€™t expect of nearly $10,000 US due to needing two root canals and other minor work, and insurance yearly limitations. I was traveling to Cartagena Colombia in two weeks time for vacation and just curiously decided to google some options in the local area to where I was staying and came across this. The prices looked amazing so I saw there was an online chat and opened it up. I briefly explained that I would be there in two weeks and Carlos immediately responded saying they could make time for me immediately upon arrival, validated I would be there for at least 5 days to ensure crown completion, and made arrangements to pick me up directly from the airport to the hotel & dentist. As agreed, when we arrived we went straight to the dentist and were immediately seen by Dr. Oliver. They took the x-rays, confirmed the one root canal, but also determined that the second would need to be an extraction, due to how long the tooth had been damaged, there was we a high likelyhood the root canal post & crown would not settle and would need to be re-done in a year or two. Dr. Oliver explained the entire process to me, also answered all my questions. The first night we completed the root canal & post, and also the 3D scan for the crown. While I was there I figured I would take advantage of the fillings I needed as well as getting my teeth whitened, all of which we made appointments for. I came back two days later to complete the fillings, the next day was the extraction, bone graft, implant, as well as some remaining fillings and the placement of the crown. The final day I was able to get my last whitening. I couldnā€™t be happier with the entire experience as there was absolutely no soreness or pain from the root canal, and only slight discomfort the first night from the extraction / graft and implant (all of which is to be expected). I want to truly thank Dr. Oliver & his entire team, and if anyone wants any more insight feel free to email me directly @ [email protected] I know itā€™s a long review, but when I was doing my research I would of appreciated this level of detail. Thank you again!

    My experience at Dr. Oliverā€™s office was EXCEPTIONAL! I felt so comfortable and at ease and usually I am terrified of the dentist. I was able to get a cleaning done and a consultation for veneers and my self esteem is so much higher prior to when I arrived. His staff is attentive, very polite and make you feel so amazing. Excited to come back in the Spring to get more work done! Please if you are having doubts, there is no need! Dr. Oliver and his team are experts and so professional and caring!

    Great experience! Highly recommend! This was our first time to Cartagena and they made us feel so taken care of. Carlos our driver was awesome! The communication from everyone was clear, professional and super helpful. Everything was upfront. I got my wisdom teeth removed and am feeling no pain 3 days later. Hope to come back next year!

    I purchased the take-home teeth whitening kit which costs 3 times less than in Canada. First they made an imprint of my teeth. It was fast and efficient and took about 15 minutes. I paid for half the amount and returned the day after to get my kit which included my teeth trays and one Opalescence PF 20% mint whitening gel and paid the rest. You can buy more gel from them but it's cheaper on Amazon. They were friendly and efficient. The clinic was clean and staff professional. This was much simpler than the implant service they offer. I did see one woman come out with a big smile who chanted "I've got teeth! Omg, I've got teeth!" after looking in the mirror. She seemed very satisfied....

    OMG what can I say!! Dr. Julio In Cartagena is EPIC! I had a fairly major car wreck 12yrs ago, broke my jaw, knocked all my lower teeth out, twisted my two front teeth. Iā€™ve been stuck looking like Billy-Bob Hillbilly ever since. Corrective surgery in the US, including an essential bone graft and 4 tooth bridge in my lower front jaw, restoration work on removing the old teeth (that had been knocked out and re-implanted badly), capping my two front teeth and just repairing lots of damage would have been in excess of $44k - Dr. Julio was UNDER $10k!!! The team are amazing, Claudia, the international patient Co-ordinator just goes above and beyond constantly, prepping everything, getting your support team ready, arrange drivers (she even helped me arrange a hair transplant with a Hair Restoration clinic nearby), Fernando and Carlos, my chaperones and translators the clinic provided to pick me up, ferry me round to appointments, get prescriptions and take me back to the airport, amazing guys!! Just could not do enough to help and they even created an entire schedule of sightseeing and things to do that would suit my somewhat fragile condition. Then thereā€™s the team in clinic doing the work, they are all epic and very talented, caring and lovely people, English was a stretch at times, but they are super patient and explain everything over and over as much as they can. My end result is absolutely stunning, I cried a bit Iā€™ll be honest, Dr. Julio and his team gave me back my ability to have a beaming smile and Iā€™m forever grateful. I canā€™t recommend Dental Tourism Colombia enough! If youā€™re thinking about it and hesitating because your worried about ā€˜going to Colombia for surgeryā€™ honestly Dr. Julio, in fact Iā€™d say Iā€™m guessing all the dentists in all 4 locations, are twice the surgeon and cosmetic dentist of any of the sharks in LA.

    I had a great experience with Dr. Oliver and his staff. Everything was well thought out in advance as far as doing my x-rays impressions and replacing my crowns. The work the doctor did is superior in quality. I am very happy I found Dr. Oliver and his staff when I considered doing cosmetic dentistry. I have several friends that are interested in having Dr. Oliver do dental work for them I give them my highest personal recommendation

    Wanted to wait a year or so until I left a review. Flew down from the US, and had all of my rides taken care of by the dental office. I had a 3pc veneer put in and a crown, and they did a phenominal job and the work was outstanding. The office was state of the art, english/Spanish speaking so communication was no issue at all. If I ever need dental work like this again, I would not hesitate to come back and visit Dr. Julio

  • 5/5 Cee C. 5 years ago on Google
    Doctor Julio and staff are awesome! The service was beyond my expectations. Travel from the US to Cartagena was simple. The office arranged my pickup from the airport and then got me to my hotel and the dental office. The reccomended accommodations was reasonably priced and very nice! I felt safe and secure the entire time I was there! I definitely recommend DTC, Cartagena!!

    Had a wonderful experience with Dr. Oliver and his team! I was skeptical about getting dental work done internationally, but after my experience with Dr. Oliver, I will be returning to get more work done. I got several porcelain crowns, the process was quick, pain free and affordable. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, and also spoke English which was a big plus for me. 2 weeks later and I have received countless compliments on my new smile, thanks so much!

    despite having medical and dental insurance I traveled from NYC to Cartagena to see the good Doctor and would do it all over and over and over again. Dr. Julio Oliver and his team are truly a gift from God. If anyone has any dental issues believe me they are The 1 to go see. No regrets whatsoever.

    Dr Julio Oliver is highly recommended! I'm from Canada and came down for a holiday but wound up doing a root canal and another cavity on a different day. It was both last minute and he even opened just for me on a national holiday!.. Both procedures were painless and done great. Even though my root canal was a challenge because of my dumb tooth, no extra charge. My buddy also is getting implants and he has had a great experience too!

    My experience with dental tourism Colombia was a good one. I recently had a crown replacement done in Cartagena with Dr. Oliver & the quality of work was on par with any service Iā€™ve had done in the United States. I was expecting the crown to come from the lab & be replaced on my first visit, but did have to wait a few days for the crown to be fabricated. Other than that, I would just recommend brushing up a bit on Spanish for ease of communication during your appointment. I would recommend dental tourism Colombia to anyone in North America looking for quality dental work at a fraction of the cost.

    If youā€™re looking for economical dental work but at the highest standards I recommend Dr. Julio Oliver and his staff in Cartagena, Colombia. Iā€™ve had an implant, veneers, a bridge as well as cleanings and every visit has been a wonderful experience. If youā€™re not familiar with Cartagena, itā€™s a beautiful historic city on the ocean in northern Colombia, a combination of old world Spanish and a modern high rise city only 3 hours from Miami. For the cost of dental work at Dental Tourism Colombia, the savings will more than pay for one of the most memorable vacations in this modern safe city. When investigating dental facilities a few years ago I looked at Costa Rica, Mexico and Panama and settled on Dental Tourism Colombia and without a doubt it was the best decision I made. Dr. Oliver and his staff were nothing short of fantastic, as a matter of fact I just returned yesterday from Cartagena and Dental Tourism Colombia and will return for any future dental needs!

    I would like my review to serve as a guide for anyone doing research, or searching for a dentist, or in my case someone interested in veneers. So, the obvious is yes, you will save thousands of dollars, but in the united states there's a saying, "you get what you pay for" so with that in mind I didn't use price as a determining factor. I chose Dr. Oliver and his wonderful staff for 3 reasons. 1). I researched doctors in the US as well as south America. The one thing that I look for is the consistency of a particular negative review. If it's something that I'm worried about then i take that into consideration. I went to a lot of different medical sites that posted unbiased reviews on dentist as well as medical doctors. There were a few for all of the doctors that i researched. When I researched Dr. Oliver, I COULDN'T FIND ANY!!!! I search and search but turned up no negative reviews! 2).The second reason had to do with a lot of reviews I saw on other dentist/doctors. There was a "consistent negative review" that I saw on a lot of dentist. People felt misled because then they got there, and an assistant or another doctor is the one that performed the work. From my first visit to my last (I had a total of 4 procedures) Dr. Oliver is the only dentist that worked on me. 3). The last reason was based on another consistent negative review that I saw with a lot of other dentist is that they were required to pay either a deposit, or pay for the services before they were performed. With Dr. Oliver, I did not pay a single penny until all services were performed and that I was happy with the results. All of the other things that are mentioned in previous reviews are true. He is very professional, the place is very modern and clean, his staff is very friendly. Yes, his prices are a lot cheaper than in other countries, but Dr. Oliver is also BETTER than a lot of dentist in other countries! I can proudly say, that I love my new smile and Dr. Oliver is now, my full time dentist!

    Dr. Julio and his team are FABULOUS! After many months of researching dental offices, deciding to complete my dental work with Dental Tourism Colombia felt like the right decision! From my online inquiry, telephone consultations, first visit and second visit ā€” every interaction was EXCELLENT! Jose is amazing! Very friendly, caring, professional, and hospitable. Carlos, the driver and his team are friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I am very happy with my results and I look forward to future visits of teeth whitening and/or any other needed services. Choosing Dental Tourism Colombia was the BEST decision ever! Dr. Julio youā€™re the BEST! Thank you for your expertise, patience and willingness to provide excellent results. Thank you to everyone on the team! Wishing you all continued, abundant success!

    I had a five star experience from my first encounter with Fernando at the airport until my last office visit a week later! Dr Oliver, Angie, Fernando, Carlos and the entire team are the best! Dr Oliver takes pride in his work and meticulously worked to ensure I was pleased with my results. My veneers look so natural! The level of professionalism and efficiency I experienced at every appointment was quite impressive! Iā€™m so happy I found Dr Oliver!

    We recently traveled to Cartagena to seek Dr. Oliverā€™s opinion for my husbandā€™s dental needs. We were somewhat hesitant travelers, as we had never ventured outside of the US for any type of medical care, but the cost of dental care in the US has simply become unbearable. After our experience we can say without hesitation that Dr. Oliver and his entire staff, including Carlos, our driver, are top notch professionals. The cost of dental care in Colombia is remarkably lower, and yet the quality of care is not compromised. If you are hesitating, hesitate no more!

    Dr Julio Oliver is very talented and really cares about his patients. He spent a lot of time with me and was extremely patient. My results were amazing! I would definitely recommend him! He is bilingual and his staff as well. His office staff are very professional and friendly. His office is beautiful, immaculate and all equipment is state of the art. I highly recommend him.

    Great experience! I was seen right at my appointment time, they did a check up and confirmed no cavities and did a through cleaning. Office was clean and sanitary practices appeared above and beyond what you would find in the US. The Dr also cleaned off some stains Iā€™ve had since I got my braces off as a kid for no extra cost. I currently do not need anything but would certainly consider flying back for future work.

    I really enjoyed working with this dentist office. From beginning to end they have everything covered. From transportation to and from the facility to transportation to the airport on your last day. Dr allover himself is truly professional and he knows the dental industry. I had 12 veneers and 4 crowns done and the work is outstanding. He comes highly recommended from me. Gain that confidence and let them make your smile worth a million bucks..

    Where do I began.. Letā€™s start with my trip to Columbia. Nervous?? not at all. From the moment i landed at the airport, I felt right at home. I enjoyed every minute of my stay. The best part outside of receiving my dental work had to be my visit to the rosario islands. Great scene & Great food. / now about my dental visit.. I actually brought a friend with me & we both left Columbia with our Dr. Oliver Hollywood smiles. Iā€™m here to tell everyone that this guy is The Best at cosmetic dentistry. not to mention his great personality & overall wonderful guy. His dental assistants are also great people & very helpful. If your thinking about having work done by Dr. Oliver & his team, think no more & just book your flight now. Youā€™ll soon be smiling 24/7 like me. Thankyou Dr. Oliver.

  • 5/5 Marcello S. 3 years ago on Google
    Let me tell a story about the best Fā€™ing dentist in the WORLD Dr. Julio Oliver. He is not only absolutely professional but ethically and morally he is cut from a different cloth. Iā€™m from the good old USA and I went to see a few different dentist who basically told me they will do whatever I want/tell them to do and it would cost thousands and thousands of dollars. I then made the first step in the process of the best decision of my life. I sent some of my pics to Dr Oliver and this man from a country that ainā€™t doing as good as the USA is financially told me he donā€™t care what I tell him I want him to do he will only do whatā€™s right treatment wise and ethically and morally. If I followed his lead and allowed him to do what he does best I would have the perfect smile Iā€™ve wanted for the last 30+yrs. (Iā€™m 35 so yea my whole life basically Iā€™ve hated my teeth for one reason or another) so I booked my 10 day trip to the most beautiful safe CLEAN affordable place Iā€™ve ever been in my life. Everything was seamless from the time I landed I was Picked up from the airport by one of the Dr drivers and taken to my condo the driver waited for me to unpack and then drove me to my first visit. From my first visit to my last thru that 10 days Dr Julio took care of me with such care and impeccable treatment. I was in minimal pain and thatā€™s all because of how good a dentist dr Julio is. Iā€™ve allowed my teeth to become disgusting over these years because of the fear of the pain I would have going to dentist but not in Dr julios hands. I literally fell asleep 3 different times while this man was drilling /shaving my teeth. This man is a life changer and he deserves to be recognized as the best dentist in the world.

    I am from Ottawa Canada. I needed two crowns and roots canals. The dentist was very professional and the office was very clean and well equipped. There was no difference between Dr Oliver and our dentist in Canada. After talking to him we were able to see that he is an expert in his field and now after the work done we trust him completely for future interventions. The work done and the service provided was outstanding. I recommend him 100 percent.

    Still cant believe this happened! At first it felt too good to be true. The process from start to finish was very smooth. Carlos reached out immediately after generating a quote online. He was very responsive and answered every question I had and set up my pick up. I was a bit skeptical at first although I've been to Colombia in the past. The thought of someone picking me up at the airport was a bit nerve wrecking especially since I was traveling alone. I took the risk and it was one of the decisions I've ever made. Juan (if I remember correctly) had a sign at the airport with my name on it. I felt his great vibes immediately! He spoke to me in English on the car ride from the airport and I spoke in Spanish to practice.. HAHA. I visited the dental office 3 times and all 3 times I was seen IMMEDIATELY! This allowed me to enjoy my trip although I had teeth errands to run :-D . The office is VERY clean and everyone is very friendly and welcoming. DR. Juan is absolutely amazing! Absolutely happy from beginning to end!

    The best decision I made in 2023 was visiting Dr. Oliver in Cartagena for a much needed dental implant! He and his staff are truly the best I have visited. And, based on how others have described their implant experiences in the U.S., I can say that my experience in Cartagena was even better than theirs. I also decided to get veneers while I was there, and again, Dr. Oliver really was the best. I've received so many compliments and am so happy with the results. If I ever need more dental work done (and since dental issues run in my family), I will absolutely visit Dr. Oliver again. If you are even considering choosing Dr. Oliver to address any dental issues, don't hesitate. I really cannot say enough good things about him, his practice and his staff! They're truly the best.

    Very professional and friendly staff. They managed to finish the work ahead of schedule, and it was a lot to do. When I realized one of crowns was a little too high they brought me back in immediately and adjusted it. Everything looks and feels great. I highly recommend to anyone who needs dental work. Saved a ton of money and got to visit a beautiful country. Thank you again to Dr. Oliver, Carlos, Angie and everyone else, youā€™re great.

    From start to finish I had an absolutely fantastic experience with the entire staff especially Doctor Oliver.. I have dealt with a few very talented dentists and orthodontists and would rank Doctor Oliver right up with the best.Two crowns and one root canal for $1450.00 made me a believer that I made a wise decision to choose Doctor Oliver.

    My wife and I made appointments and went to this dentist the first thing on our day in port on our cruise. They were clean, professional, and honest. They informed my wife she didn't need a deep cleaning that her new dentist back home had recommended. We were in and out within an hour.

    Incredible experience with Dr Oliver. I stupidly tried biting open a creamer packet for coffee on our flight into Cartagena and my veneer popped off. Luckily it stayed in one piece. I used google to find this dental office, they made sure to see me within a couple of hours (same day), clean and professional office. Dr Oliver was great, I told him what happened, he tried to hold in his laugh, 15 minutes later my veneer was back on and my pictures started to look great again. I highly recommend this office to anyone in need of a clean, professional and friendly dentist. He also spoke English which made things so much easier. 5/5

    Made an emergency visit while I was visiting Cartagena. Dr. Oliver saw me on very short notice and did excellent work. I found him and his staff to be courteous and professional. Thanks to them I was able to fly back home the day after. I would recommend his clinic to anyone in need of dental work.

    Good experience with dental cleaning and laser whitening. I did have to wait for over 1 hour past my appointment time but they are very professional, attentive and caring. The Dental Technician spoke english and was extremely competent. I feel they did a very good job that was equivalent to anything in the United States for a much lower price.

    I was in Cartagena and had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Oliver and his staff. Any apprehension I had prior to my visit to Columbia and meeting personally with Dr. Julio Oliver went completely out the window. I will be returning in about 2 months to have a pretty major makeover. I will follow up with an additional review upon completion

  • 5/5 Mike M. 4 years ago on Google
    I decided on my recent visit to Cartagena to get a cleaning and exam. I did much research before leaving the states and made an appointment with Dr. Oliver. The process could not have been easier or more professional. The usual concerns were in my mind about getting this done in another country. I will admit to being nervous even walking into the office but that quickly disappeared. The office was clean and professional and the staff was incredible. The tech who did my cleaning was patient and gentle and helped me to relax the entire time. I definitely recommend this office and Dr Oliver. I have to have additional work done and will be returning after the holidays. Another visit to Cartagena?? Aww darn ;))

  • 5/5 Mark S. 7 months ago on Google
    This is going to be a long review. I'm on a budget and needed dental implants and didn't feel like taking a second mortage out on my house to get it done in the States so I started to look for dentists overseas. I looked everywhere: eastern Europe, Korea, Thailand, Turkey, India, and Latin America. About half of the places I contacted NEVER responded at all. Because of the high cost of air fare I quickly narrowed in on Latin America. Also, many overseas clinics couldn't figure out that the whole object of going overseas was to save money. You'd think that would be obvious but it wasnt. MANY clinics were as much or more than the high priced clinics here in the US that I was trying to avoid. Almost went with a couple of clinics in Costa Rica but twice they came back with hidden fees at the last minute, just before I was about to book my reservations and who knows what the final cost would have been once I got there and they had me over a barrel. By chance, I happened to read a New York Post article about Dr Julio Oliver Gonzales and thought I would give him a try. One thing that impressed me from the outset was that they didn't want a dime's payment until AFTER the operation was overI . Many outfits demand at least a down payment before they will give you a reservation. I needed dental implants and a chipped tooth fixed. The chipped tooth in particular made me look like the guy from Deliverance. Had to get that fixed. So I rolled the dice and waited to see what would happen.. A driver met me at the airport on a national holiday which i greatly appeciated and gave him a generous tip for and he drove me to my hotel. In fact, the driver drove me to all of my appointments, took me for a quick grocery shopping trip, and drove me back to the airport when my trip was done. Now for the Drs. I am a HUGE gagger and I can't control it. Im REALLY hard to work on. I saw a few videos on what actually went into a tooth transplant. The more I saw, the less I wanted to know. To this day I don't know how you drill a straight vertical hole into someone's gums without lurching off to the side and messing the whole thing up, but he didn't. The procedure was completely painless - the cleaning hurt more and within a day I had no need for pain pills at all. The pain the first day was very mild and but I am coward and I didnt want to chance it. then they whitened my teeth so they looked MUCH better and filled in the chip. Amazingly they got the color of the chip to exactly match the color my newly whiten teeth. I didn't have that two-tone effect you so often see that looks like someone stuck Elmer's glue on your tooth. Honestly, it looks totally natural. It was all very affordable and the equipment was all very modern and professional. One thing in particular I appreciated was the fact that they had an orbital X ray machine. I gag like the dickens EVERY time they put those short little X ray films in my mouth and have to fight to keep from swallowing them. The staff was extremely friendly and gentle and professional. Now let me tell you what they didn't do. They didn't try to rush me back for a quick follow visit three months later so they could help their cash flow. No. They said I had to wait six months to let the bone heal completely and so the work would be PERFECT. I almost cried. And that's their attitude in a nutshell. YOU come first. Always. I have to come back in six months to have the crowns attached to the screws and am looking forward to that and to seeing Cartagena again. Unless I grow a second head in the next few months as a result of the surgery, I would have to give this clinic a solid A+++. These guys are literally world-class. DEFINITELY I would recommend them!

    Excellent service and great dental care. I came to get a root canal and crown done. I had a week to get everything taken care of. I was picked up from the airport by Carlos who is super friendly and has great recommendations. Then we went to our airbnb to drop our bags off and have a quick bite before the dental appt. The treatment was pain free and I can not say enough wonderful things about Dr. Oliver! I will definitely be flying back to Colombia in the future for any other dental procedures and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for great care!

    After months of intense searching for the perfect dentist for my Veneers, I found Dr. Oliver in Cartagena. From the first email down to the last appointment, everything was easier than I ever could have imagined. Huge thanks to Carlos for coordinating everything, Juan for grabbing me from the airport and showing me the beautiful city and Dr. Oliver for this beautiful smile of mine. I couldn't be happier.

    After needing a root canal acutely while visiting Cartagena, I was advised to visit Dr Julio Oliver by our airbnb host. I was helped as quickly as possible and feel that the care I received was very professional, kind and efficient. The dentist's office is modern and quiet, the dentist and his assistants very friendly. I received immediate relief from my pain and after the follow-up appointment I was at ease with the knowledge that my tooth was pain free and healing well. Very glad to have found this dentist at short notice and to have received great professional help in a city I did not know!

    I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Oliver! I was nervous about choosing the right shade for my veneers. Dr. Oliver's input is what made them turn out fantastic! I'm totally coming back for my future dental needs! Thank you, Dr. Oliver!

    Dr. Oliver and his team are the best! I was a bit nervous at first to receive dental treatment from another country and also traveling by myself, but after doing my research I knew that I would be in terrific hands! The concierge picked me up from the airport once I got off the plane and I was taken to my first appointment. The office is professional and the interior is chic and stylish! I was there for a post-op crown after I had my root canal done in the States. I was fitted and received my crown a few days later. Dr. Oliver is very friendly and informative. I felt comfortable during my procedure during the entire stay. I will highly recommend him to anyone considering traveling to Cartagena for affordable dentistry. Can't wait to travel to Colombia again! Great experience!

    Only time will tell the level of quality. But I can tell you, my experience up until now has been nothing short of excellent. Dr. Julio Oliver was fantastic, patient, and professional. His assistant was very gentle & accommodating. I would highly recommend Dr. Oliver for all of your dental needs. I would send my own mother to him. And big thanks to Carlos for facilitating most communications and assisting with logistics.

    I arrived at my first appointment at DTC Monday morning, and by Thursday afternoon after 4 days on the beach in beautiful Cartagena I left with a new smile. Courteous, professional, pain-free service from Dr. Oliver and his staff and I could not be happier with my results. Thanks+ to all the staff at DTC!

  • 5/5 Michael M. 5 years ago on Google
    Dr. Oliver and his staff we absolutely professional all the way! From pick up by the concierge to the final day. I had to have several procedures over the course of a week. Dr. Oliver made a schedule with great comfort and efficiency. Now I have a great smile for a great price. I visited from the US and always felt comfortable in the office and in Cartagena!! Thank you!!

  • 5/5 Crystal A. 5 years ago on Google
    , I had a great time in Cartagena and am looking forward to going back to the beautiful city. Even though Dr Oliverā€™s English was limited I still felt very taken care of through the whole process. He is very fast and efficient when it comes to implants. He gave me his number on WhatsApp so I could contact him at anytime should any concerns arise.

  • 5/5 Pietro G. 5 years ago on Google
    Dr Oliver is really really good at what he is doing. I was for a week here and they took care of me really well. They offer a airport pick up. And the staff is really nice. I am really happy with my new smile. I will come back for future dental services.

  • 5/5 John P. 1 year ago on Google
    I recently went on a trip to Cartagena and thought I would take an hour out of my day to get some dental work done because of the price. It's about 10 times cheaper than the US. I didn't know what to expect in terms of quality, but the dentist was fabulous, virtually no pain and very gentle. I will be returning here for all future dental work.

    Traveled to Colombia for vacation and decided to get some dental work done (cleaning and whitening). The staff was very professional and friendly, and the facility was very clean and comfortable. Best dental experience I've had. I would highly recommend this practice for dental work. Also, the prices were unbeatable!!

    I called on Thursday to schedule a cleaning for the following Friday morning, scheduling was pretty straight forward. The process was effortless in and out in an hour, no problems. I was even able to get further consultation; I will most likely be doing my root canal and two crowns here in the next few months.

    My experience with Dr. Oliver and his staff from the start to finish was truly exceptional. From my pick up at the airport to my visits at the office I always felt so at ease. Dr. Olivier and his staff did everything with a smile and with such gentle kindness. Traveling to Cartagena Colombia to get my veneers and crowns done while enjoying my vacation was the best decision I could have made. Cartagena is beautiful. I am in love with my new smile and full of confidence thanks to Dr. Oliver. and his gentle hands. I felt like I was at home and definitely will be visiting again if I need any dental work done. I will recommend to family, friends and anyone to see Dr. Oliver he is amazing.

    Doctor Oliver and his great staff are professional and dedicated to excellence. My implants and teeth are perfect! I am so happy I went to Dr. Oliverā€™s office to get the work done. Thank you, my dear doctor and your excellent staff. I must not forget to thank Fernando and Nelson who made sure I made my dental appointments on time. They picked me up at airport, took me to hotel, and dropped me off at airport when I was leaving Colombia. Excellent service!

    What can I say. I really enjoyed my experience with Dental Tourism. The staff was not only super helpful, attentive and freindly, but they also helped me to feel super comfortable during my appointments. They answered all my questions and concerns and really made sure to give me the best experience. I really loved how they paired me with a guide to help me get around and figure out the best places to go during my stay. The doctor was super articulate and profesional and do weā€™re the assistants. This place changed my life. The doctor did an amazing job and Iā€™m so greatful! I recommend this place 1000 percent.

    If you need a caring dentist who takes care of you personally and is concerned about your well-being Dr. Julio is the dentist for you. I suffer from a great deal of anxiety when it comes to dentistry. Dr. Julio made me feel so comfortable I will only see him. It is worth the trip.

    I needed a lots of dental work done so I went to my local dentist in Anchorage, Alaska and got an evaluation. The estimate was way out of my price range. I would not be able to afford to get it done. So I went online and found Dr. Julio Oliver through Claudia dental tourism in Colombia. I took a picture of my mouth got an estimate the work requirements that Dr. Oliver said I needed match those that the dentist in Alaska said I needed done the price was a lot better so I decided to take a chance and go to Colombia. Dr. Oliver and his staff are very professional and they perform the work that they said they would do for the price they quoted me and they do not work is completed and it was an awesome experience my teeth look fantastic and highly recommend that you give them a try if you. looking for a good dental work at a reasonable price. I give them five stars! I saved a ton of money!

    Dr Julio Oliver and his entire staff are remarkable. The team is personable, professional and extremely efficient. My entire experience, from start to finish, was extremely enjoyable despite needing a great deal of dental work. Dr Julio is a perfectionist and his passion is evident in his work. He would be a great value at twice the price as his work is the best you could find. I look forward to my next visit to the beautiful city of Cartagena to continue my transformation.
