Our Take

Dr. Picard-Ami is about as credentialed as it gets in the region: triple board certification (US, Canada, Panama), FACS, McGill training, and a prior role as medical director of a Miami plastic-surgery institute before returning to Panama. He carries a sustained 5-star rating across years of patient reviews and operates in the JCI-accredited Punta Pacifica ecosystem. This is a quality-first, surgeon-led choice rather than a discount package operator - expect mid-range Panama pricing.

  • Operates within JCI-accredited hospital system
