Our Take
Clinica Ford is one of Panama City's better-known international-patient practices, founded by Dr. Richard Ford, a periodontist who earned his specialist degree at Louisiana State University and is certified in multiple implant systems. It operates two locations in premier medical districts (Marbella and Costa del Este), markets a multi-year implant guarantee, and carries a strong WhatClinic ServiceScore (around 9.2) with a 2025 customer-service award. We could not independently verify a formal hospital accreditation, so we list none - confirm the implant system and warranty terms in writing at consultation.
