I, unfortunately, forgot medication I was supposed to bring while traveling, so I contacted Doctors for Expats. They were so fast to get me an appointment and were well organized as well! Hernan, the manager/contact person on WhatsApp, and Dr. Franco were both fantastic help!

I’ve now used DoctorsForExpats twice, and each experience has been outstanding. Their team made up of both Americans and Colombians brings a perfect balance of professionalism and cultural understanding.What impressed me most is their multi‑language ability, which makes communication seamless whether you prefer English or Spanish. They handle everything with care and precision, and I felt fully supported throughout the process.I also appreciate that they go beyond standard medical services by providing medical certificates for migration, which is a huge help for expats navigating residency requirements. Overall, I highly recommend DoctorsForExpats to anyone needing reliable, professional, and bilingual medical support in Colombia.

I had a prescription emergency and they were able to do a same-day virtual consultation and get me my prescriptions before the end of the day. Very professional. Efficient.

This was an incredible experience! Never have Doctor’s appointments been this easy. The team got me appointments almost immediately, scheduled a nurse to come to the house for lab samples, and set up my prescription with easy recommendations where to fill it. Absolutely recommended!!! Also, the whole team speaks fluent English, so no need to worry.

I contacted doctors for expats after getting a second degree burn on a motorbike. Hernan messaged me back within a minute and arranged for me to speak with the doctor within a few hours. Dr Ruge was so helpful and informative. I was a bit worried as to how the wound was looking but Hernan said I could continue to send pictures over the next few days and get advice from Dr Ruge. I would definitely recommend this service! Thank you so much

We came for our first trip to Colombia and wanted some pretty last min medication for malaria. These guys were super helpful- they got a quick consultation and helped us find pharmacy’s and gave us a rough estimation of price to ensure we wouldn’t get scammed. Super helpful guys- a no brainer for any westerners looking for any friendly English speaking doctors and staff 👍

We needed medical certificates for our new jobs and we had a great experience with Hernan and Dr Lopez. Hernan communicated with all the way through the process. He was very quick at responding to our many questions and he organised the tests that we needed. Both Hernan and Dr Lopez were very professional throughout.

We knew we would only be in Bogotá for 4 days, and we needed a complete medical for work. Hernan was really helpful and organised everything for us. Once booked in, everything ran smoothly and on time. Highly recommend this agency.
