i decided to use Dr. Mendez at Dr. Chin's local clinic, due mainly to proximity to me and the ability to get a quick appointment. Both the doctors in David would have taken several days, not to mention the round trip. I got the results i wanted, but was not inexpensive. I think if i have to do it again i will plan ahead and make an appointment with Dr. Tortosa or Dr. Rivera Man when i will look for a more permanent solution
Dr. Victor M. Rivera Man; 777-8037, Orthopedic Doctor. Office in Chiriqui Hospital, ground level, straight back from Emergency waiting room. Both my wife, and I, have used him, and are very pleased. He speaks English, his staff does not.

Dr. Eric Tortosa, Chiriqui Hospital. He really cares and is really good.
Dr. Tortosa seems to be well respected...appreciate the referral
I had a cortisone shot in my knee at Dr. Chen's office too, here in Boquete. Dr. Mendez, orthopedist, I think.

I second Harry's recommendation of Dr. Rivera Man.
thank you
