I’m travelling in Colombia right now and needed medical support because of some infected wounds on my body. I was already a bit worried where to go as a non Spanish speaking traveller with not too many time in Cali. I found Doctors for Expats during my google research and gave them a try. And what should I say - I was more than satisfied! I got an online appointments within the same day and could talk to a competent doctor. She took a lot of time on the phone and was really caring.
