    I called for an appointment. They came to see me right away. They came right to my hotel room. Very satisfied. Short wait for an appoinment. Experienced doctors and provided a high level of care. Low cost, and travel insurance friendly. They also offer I.V. Hydration which helped me out after getting too much sun. Call them if you are in Cartagena and need a good Doctor or you got to much sun.

    I had an amazing service from beginning to end. Firt, Dr Strusberg was so helpful and professional over the phone. Then, Dr Crespo and their nurse arrived quickly, assessed the situation and gave me the treatment that I needed. They were reassuring, empathetic and so kind. Thank you so much for everything.

    Dr. Erika from Cartagena MD Services provided genuine care, prompt and knowledgable responses, follow-ups after our initial visit to make sure I was okay, and made me feel like a human more than just a client or patient. It was the best quality of care I have received abroad and am grateful for her compassion and patience as we sorted out medical needs/treatment!

    Dr. Strusberg and nurse Marta were amazing! This is a great service to offer - my husband feels great and we were able to salvage our trip onto Pamama from Cartagena. My husband got a stomach bug and was miserable. Dr. Strusberg and Marta came to the house and helped my husband and now he's better! Dr. Strusberg is fluent in English. I contacted Cartegena MD Services and from the first contact everything went seemless. They come to your house, provide quick efficient care, and make arrangements for prescriptions to be delivered, if needed. VERY reasonable cost overall. My only regret is I wished I would have called sooner! Call now and get feeling better!

    I was attacked by a stray dog on the Isla Grande and was scratched on the leg and was concerned of rabies. The level of service and concern i received from the doctors is better than what i receive from my home country. The doctors that work here have amazing english and went above and beyond to help me organise the rabies vaccine shot i needed. Thanks so much.

    If you’re feeling sick and you’re unsure, just give them a call. I was super sick from food poisoning (it wasn’t pretty lol) and didn’t know who to contact. I’m so glad I called. They answered the phone right away and answered all of my questions. They even fit me in the same day. The doctor and nurse came to my Airbnb. I was given an IV to help with nausea, dehydration, and the bacterial infection. I was also prescribed antibiotics and the doctor had them delivered to my door! I felt much better the following day. The doc called and texted me over the next few days to see how I was doing. Definitely the best care I’ve ever received. 15/10, def recommend!

    This doctor (Robins) has been amazing to us. Great work ethic and very empathic. He literally went through like 20 pharmacies with us to find the right medicine. Also a very social and kind person. Would definitely recommend!

    If you have any problems health wise in Cartagena, you have to call here. They were amazing. I got a ridiculous case of kidney stones and they came to my hotel and fixed me up. They care, they’re very nice and they know their stuff. Make sure you call them! Don’t just go to their address. They were amazing.

    Our daughter got sick quickly one night and the doctor and nurse came quickly and diagnosed her with a UTI that spread to her kidneys. They stayed with us to make sure the antibiotics they ordered arrived and gave us guidance about other medical concerns. They were available by WhatsApp to answer questions afterward and even checked in see how she was doing. They were so kind and put my daughter (and me!) at ease. I can't recommend them enough. Their care is so excellent, kind and prompt.

    Immediate help Dr. Strusberg asked profound questions over the phone and was able to provide first information. He arrived at my hotel within an hour, diagnosed me and prescribed the medication I required. He even checked in on me regularly over the next few days. I felt perfectly cared for and would come back anytime.

    Nothing short of amazing service. Dr Ericka Crespo was knowledgeable and treated me just like my primary physician. She came to my airbnb, asked me questions and followed them with a thorough examination. She was able to bring a nurse that helped with IV. She even gave me suggestions of where to visibly in Colombia. As a frequent traveler, I couldn’t recommend this service enough. Thank you Dr. Crespo!

    Dr. Strusberg and his team at TravelMD are wonderful. They responded immediately to my call and were at our apartment in Cartagena within the hour. Dr. Strusberg was calm, friendly, and extremely attentive. He stayed with my sick husband until he was showing signs of improvement. He gave clear instructions, communicated what he was doing, and followed up with us every day until we left Cartagena. Highly recommend using TravelMD to address any medical needs while staying in Cartagena!

    Fast, competent care during and after the appointment. Dr. Strusberg took lots of time for us and made sure we were feeling better. Our recommendation if you are searching for a doctor in Cartagena!

  • 5/5 Els H. 7 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    I had sent a Whatsapp message to Dr. Strusberg and I got a quick reply saying i could get treatment the same day, so I went to the office in Manga after a short exhange of my medical issue. At the treatment center I was looked after really well and with care. His english is very good which made it easier to explain my medical issue. He explained everything in detail and got prescribed some things for my treatment. He also told me i could always text him during my stay in Cartagena. After I arrived to my home country I also got a check-up message to see how I am doing. Really good service :)

    My wife and I are both ill in Colombia. She has a sinus infection and I have bronchitis. We wrote to the service via WhatsApp and 2.5 hours later a doctor was at our hotel. He took a lot of time to check all the vital signs and listened very carefully. We were immediately sent prescriptions via WhatsApp (PDF) and were able to pick up the medication at the nearest pharmacy without any problems. We also receive the invoices and documents for the German health insurance abroad as a PDF via WhatsApp in a few days. All in all, super uncomplicated and satisfactory!

    This service is excellent. I was easily able to book an in-person visit over WhatsApp from a very professional and friendly English-speaking doctor who treated me back to health. They were very quick and responsive over WhatsApp and the doctor showed up on time. If you have a medical problem, I strongly recommend this service!

    He is literally a life saver. Without him our vacation would end at that moment. Highly recommended

    This team of doctors and nurses is absolutely incredible. After searching online for an hour in attempt to find a clinic in Cartagena for travellers with an English speaking doctor, I finally landed on MD Services. I wasn’t sure what to expect but Erika and her team were at our hostel within the hour to help my friend who had been ill for over a week. She knew exactly what to do with bad stomach issues, and her after treatment service was incredible. One of the cherries on top was calling the pharmacy for us, and having them deliver the medication and then staying to explain everything in detail. This team is incredibly kind and compassionate. DON’T try and got to a local hospital or clinic, just call MD and you will be in the best care. Thank you SOOO much for everything.

  • 5/5 Sterre K. 4 years ago on Google
    I was sick in Cartagena for a few days when we found this travel clinic doctor on google. Since I have no knowledge in the Spanish language it was very nice that there was the opportunity to have a doctor which spoke English. When we met Erika, she was one of the loveliest doctors I’ve ever had. Traveling and being sick is awful but she made it bareable. She is amazing and I would recommend the clinic to everyone, especially travelers who want fast and quick communication and just someone who really takes care of you. She even kept in touch after the treatment to see how I was doing!! Soooo sweet!

  • 5/5 Angie G. 1 year ago on Google
    I suffered from sudden eye irritation/infection during my vacation that left me in excruciating pain. The doctor came to visit the rental i was in, examined me, flushed my eyes, and arranged for a pharmacy to drop off all the medications i needed. I felt so much better that night. This is absolutely the way to go if you find yourself in need to medical attention and don’t want to travel out of the comfort of your rental/room.

  • 5/5 Assaf K. 4 years ago on Google
    The doctor is very caring and kind. He treated me in a comprehensive way and made sure I got everything I needed

  • 5/5 Kate Y. 4 years ago on Google
    So grateful for this service! Do not hesitate to call if you are in Cartagena and find yourself in need. Dr. Strusberg is a truly kind and caring doctor. He was incredibly prompt and took excellent care of my husband, and continued to follow up to make sure all was well.

  • 5/5 Camilla 4 years ago on Google
    Highly recommend - after contacting the service, the doctor promptly came to visit and provided a diagnosis. The doctor was friendly and his English was excellent. I also appreciated the after care service - the doctor checked in daily to see how I was feeling until a full recovery had been made. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Robert S. 2 years ago on Google
    The doctor has excellent follow through. He is very knowledgeable and attentive to your needs. I will be using him in the future for any issues I have. I'm glad I found him.

  • 5/5 Robert R. 1 year ago on Google
    We called Dr. Stusberg because I was dealing with intestinal issues. He spent 15 minutes on the phone with my son, whom I was traveling with, gave us some clear advice, and helped resolve my issue. To our surprise, he called us the next day with follow up, on a Saturday!

  • 5/5 Jakob G. 8 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Absolutely fantastic – far better healthcare than I receive at home (US), which was exactly what my partner and I needed after a very serious incident during our travels. Even before Dr. Strusberg first visited us in our hotel, he took the time to speak on the phone to discuss treatment options and recovery timetables. In-person he was punctual, professional, highly knowledgable, and had a bedside manner that made us feel safe and cared for when we needed it most. Plus, he's simply a cool guy, easy-going with a great sense of humor. I can't thank him and his nurse for their top-notch care.
