Graduating from high school, falling in love the first time, your first real job, that first baby boy or girl and…, reaching your professional apex.

Dr. Mario, has been practicing as an oral surgeon for the past twenty two years. In partnership with his wife Dra. Priscilla, who is also a dentist, they have built a reputation for performing affordable, world-class dental work with a passion for detail and attentive patient care.

This dedication to their medical calling has seen their practice grow steadily, especially internationally with their US and Canadian clients, who come to Costa Rica looking for affordable, quality dental work that sadly is less and less available in their home countries.

Dr. Mario’s reputation is so well established that he was selected, after a thorough vetting, by the formidable US insurance company Blue Cross Blue Shield as a preferred provider for its US policyholders.

What makes Dr. Mario such an outstanding physician is his demand for exacting surgical detail in everything he does, beginning and ending with patient care and well-being.

I have known Dr. Mario and his staff for 5 years. I have seen him in almost every conceivable situation and challenge.

It is has been such as pleasure to see a group of people work so well together, so earnestly and with such compassion for the patient that is fast becoming a lost art in the US.

Together with WeLoveCostaRica.com I have brought Dr. Mario hundreds of patients over the years and seen, almost without exception, the focus and attention each patient receives.

Ana, the patient co-ordinator, Vicki, Dr. Marios liaison and Dr. Juan his trusted partner, are the heart of Dr. Mario’s staff ( and all fluent in conversational English) as they work hand-in-glove with Dr. Mario to provide a successful dental outcome for each patient.

So, after 20 plus years of building and growing an outstanding dental practice Dr. Mario and Dra. Priscilla have built their dream clinic. With dental architects from North Carolina, they have created a state-of-the-art facility with every square foot dedicated to providing a perfect smile at the perfect price.

Besides patient comfort, the new clinic has the latest dental technology and a new laboratory that can be matched against the best the US has to offer. Every conceivable nuance in the patient experience has been considered and provided for. It is Dr. Mario’s professional dream come true.

This called for a celebration and with Georgia boys’ subtle influence, we had a grand opening BBQ party organized by Dra. Priscilla. Hot dogs, hamburgers, ballons and personal guided tours by Dr. Mario and Dr. Juan entertained over 200 guests who came to inspect and congratulate Drs. Mario and Priscilla on their new ‘home’.

It was a special day for a young couple who looked back on 20 years on building a practice together.

So, we would like to invite you to come to Costa Rica and receive not only the finest and affordable dental care (including free roundtrip airfare), but the experience and pleasure of knowing Dr. Mario, Dra. Priscilla, Dr. Juan, Ana, Vicki and a Georgia boy who will make sure everything goes just right.
