    Still a little wait but all hospitals in the world are the same. Staff is professional and medical staff also. Just at the MAPA (blood pressure monitor) girl is nonchalant and like her phone a lot. Good experience in general

    This place is a joke... they have the patient pay for services even before getting any work done, if the patient does not put a down payment they will let the patient die.. but of course once the patient is to go home they won't release the patient unless the insurance or the patient pays..they illegally kidnapp patients for days, weeks even until the insurance pays...however, cedimat takes up to 30 days to give you your deposit back.

    This place is a joke. I have a family member under their care and I can't seem to get in touch with anyone via phone to find out about the cost of the suppose "emergency surgery" no one seems to have any idea what's going on but are quick to give you a bank information with no details attached. I don't reside in the Dominican Republic but now I see why most hospital in the country are business and do not care about anyone well being. Its degusting to know that we're living in a world full of greedy and selfish people. These are not doctors, we should call them business man with hidden agenda.

    This past February my uncle visited this hospital for pain in his stomach and lack of eating. He was proud of CEDIMAT as it has some of the most advanced medicine in the Dominican Republic. He was admitted and diagnosed with advanced cirrhosis of the liver due to his drinking. Although, there was little they could do due to the late stage they found the disease there were several things that bothered the entire family after having him in intensive care for over 2 weeks and then passing away. The communication was TERRIBLE! We were lucky as we had family members that were able to use their contacts within the hospital to check on my uncles status as his health deteriorated. The doctors would provide updates a week at a time. In his last days he was intubated to help him breathe. We found out through our channels as we did not receive a phone call explaining what happened. We arrived at the hospital at 7am with the intent of an update from the shift change doctor. They knew we were there but instead of telling us what happened they avoided us. I visited administration looking for assistance. The head doctor of the department showed empathy and sent another doctor to walk with us and see what happened. They entered the private intensive care area and never came back out. He never told me how long to wait for an update or sent anyone else to update us. Nothing. He dissapeared. This does not make any sense for a patient in intensive care. They only allow patients to receive family twice per day for less than an hour. This is unsubstantied as in the USA when a patient is in a hospital and even in intensive care they can receive visitors at any time. I get they’re interest in limiting visitors, however, only being able to see a sick family member twice a day for an hour during their last days is torture to say the least. One family member should have been allowed to stay with the sick patient at all times period. I write this review to help future families not deal with what we dealt with. My uncle is gone and it won’t bring him back. The cost for this hospital is not cheap. The doctors snd technology may have helped to prolong his life, but how do you trust them when they don’t communicate. We were professional, decent and respectful. They have their rules and clear and consistent communication is not anything they stand for. If you have the funds take your family to the USA if not take them to a public hospital or private clinic. Do NOT take them to Plaza De La Salud or CEDIMAT.

    I visited their MRI lab for a 9:30 pm appointment. My doctor suggested I go early . It was a good idea. By 8:00pm I was out. The staff is courteous and professional. The whole place is immaculate. A+.

    Why call, make an appointment for a specific time; get there at the time of the appointment and 3 hours later still waiting for your turn ? It doesn’t make any sense… Medical services should know that we are in 21st Century and with technology there are a lot of ways to save people’s time without the need of being stuck waiting for your turn because there are people there before you ???? So why you didn’t tell me to come with an appointment to wait for my turn ? They charge you like you are in the 21st Century but they make you wait like you were in the 18th Century. Medical services should know that we are customers and we are seeking for an acceptable service where our time is respected like the the time of any other human being that have family and have things to do. Why medical services still think that you should beg to be treated respectfully if we pay for a service, a service that cost money and time and we still get from them whatever they want ? El servicio médico tiene que cambiar !!!

    I came here on the 21/12/2021 affected by covid. After attending another clinic in Santo Domingo, CEDIMAT shined like a star in customer service. A young doctor named Arianna in the emergency was super polite and gentle. I highly recommend going here if you are suffering from covid! :)

    I would not recommend this hospital to any tourist! They want to charge me a "minimum of $20,000 dominican pesos"($400USD) fee because I am "foreign"! I'm not an Alien the technology used on humans will work! Only good part was the nurses spoke English and they were extremely disappointed when I told them why I was leaving! This is inhumane and disgusting! I will never turn to Santo Domingo!

    Good place for healthcare, the doctors and staff are really prepared for their jobs. But I STRONGLY don't recommend going to the cafeteria, the staff in there are always mad, like they are working for free or something like that, the food was good but the attention was AWFUL the staff should be trained for customer service.

    I WANT MY MONEY BACK! STOCK MARKET, OWNERS, WHO EVER HAS MY MONEY I WANT IT BACK! I PAID ABOUT 17500.00$ FOR MY MOTHER'S SURGERY AND THEY TOLD ME SHE WOULD BE WALKING IN TWO WEEKS BUT SHE DIED 4 DAYS AFTER WE LEFT THE HOSPITAL. SHE WAS THERE FOR ONLY ABOUT 10 DAYS. I'M STILL IN DEBT OVER THIS, THEY HAVE RUINED MY LIFE. THEY WERE JUST TRYING TO TAKE MORE AND MORE MONEY FROM ME. THEY TRIED TO SELL ME EVERY SINGLE THING THEY COULD. EVEN TRIED TO FIND ME 'GOOD DEAL' ON THE WHEELCHAIR 30$ A DAY! WHAT? HOW DO PEOPLE LIVE IN THIS COUNTRY? MY MOM STOPPED TALKING WHILE IN THE HOSPITAL AFTER THE SURGERY BUT THEY SAID I JUST NEED TO GET SPEECH THERAPIST SHE IS GOING TO BE FINE. SHE DID NOT LOOK FINE TO ME! PHYSICAL THERAPIST WAS CALLING HER LAZY BUT SHE COULDN'T MOVE HER LEGS. THEY DIDN'T CARE, THEY ARE MAKING MONEY FROM THE SICK. HOW CAN ONE DOCTOR TAKE ALL OF YOUR MONEY, RUIN THE LIFE OF SICK AND HEALTHY ONES AND ACT LIKE A HERO? AREN'T YOU SUPPOSE TO HELP PEOPLE AND NOT RUIN THEIR LIVES? I'VE SEEN HIM ABOUT 3 TIMES FOR THOSE 10 DAYS. THEY WERE STILL CHARGING DOCTORS VISITS AND EVERYTHING, I HAVE BILL THAT IS 10 PAGES LONG. ROOM WAS 1000$ A DAY PLUS ALL THE MEDICATIONS. AND AFTER SHE DIED I'VE EMAILED LADY IN CHARGE OF INTERNATIONAL CASES, INTERNATIONAL DOCTOR AND DOCTOR THAT PERFORMED THE SURGERY BUT NONE OF THEM EVER RESPONDED. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!!!!
