For U.S. and Canadian Patients
If the treatment occurred in Medellín, the legal analysis must account for Colombian law — including applicable medical standards, evidence requirements and the Colombian litigation process.
Patients who live outside Colombia may still request a confidential review. Medical records, operative reports, photographs, communications and records of subsequent treatment can all be important for reconstructing what happened.
Medical Tourism in Medellín
Foreign patients may return home after treatment in Medellín and only later develop serious complications. If that happens, obtain and preserve all available records from the Colombian provider and from any doctors who treated you afterward.
