Surgery in Peru is your best ally so that you can safely combine tourism in Peru before your bariatric surgery treatments. We provide an excellent service for patients who want to explore Peru and at the same time, receive quality care in a modern and safe clinic.
Bariatric Surgery and Tourism in Lima
In recent years, medical tourism has increased significantly. However, with the arrival of coronavirus in the country, it has slowed things down considerably.
However, that doesn’t stop us! We care about the health of all our patients and staff, so we have strengthened our biosecurity protocols. We are rigorous in complying with the laws of the land and continue to attend to our patients’ needs.
Peru is such a wonderful destination! It is rich in culture, history, gastronomy and its capital, Lima, is based on the coast. Naturally, visiting touristic destinations in Peru needs to be done before any surgery. There are many things to do and see in the entire country. Please let us know what your preferences are, what you would like to see and do, and we’ll set it up for you.
