I chose Dr. Gadea in Costa Rica for dental implants because my Cousin has been her patient for many years and told me that he was the best. Dr. Gadea is very professional, detail oriented, has all the knowledge and uses the newest technology with his patients. The Office Coordinator, Assistant, and office staff are very personable. They were helpful and made me feel very comfortable. I am very thankful and pleased with all of them.

What truly sets this team apart is their passion for their work, which goes beyond financial motivaAleksandr, US, 09 04 25

Dr. Josef Cordero and his wife, Dr. Telma Rubinstein, bring nearly half of century of experience to their dental practice. Their daughter, Dr. Nadine Cordero contributes unstoppable energy to the team. They are supported by other dedicated members, including Dr. Coraline Nunes, Dr. Roberto Hernandes and Dr. Alejandro Montero. What truly sets this team apart is their passion for their work, which goes beyond financial motivation. In our opinion, this is one of the best dental family businesses in the world. With modern equipment and dental lab inside what can be done in U.S. for years, in Dr. Cordero's office can be done in days with better quality and around a half of the U.S. crazy prices. My wife and I highly recommend them. Our review is based not only on our own opinion, but also on the options of other patients who we interacted with while getting treatment there for one week in April 2025.
