If you are looking for a plastic surgeon in Costa Rica with a pristine reputation, read on.

Hi there. I'm Didi Carr Reuben and I work as a U.S. Patient Coordinator for Dr. Lev, a Brazil-trained plastic surgeon in Costa Rica. My job is to, well.... coordinate Dr. Lev's US patients! I put groups together comprised of men and women from all over the country so that they can have a "sleep-away camp" type of experience when they travel to Costa Rica for their plastic surgery procedures.

Dr. Lev and I set aside clusters of dates in each month of the year solely for individuals in the US who are seeking plastic surgery in Costa Rica. Putting groups together to support each other through this amazing, life altering experience has proven to work well for the patients. They're always grateful for having had other people around them who were going through the same process while they were at the recovery retreat those first two weeks after surgery.

Before you go on, I need to say that if you are looking around the Internet for the cheapest plastic surgery experience you can find, you've come to the wrong place and need to move on. You have found one of the best plastic surgeons in Costa Rica. Alejandro Lev is a doctor who is known in Costa Rica as a "Doctors' Doctor” and is a Costa Rican plastic surgeon with a pristine reputation.

Dr. Lev is also has double certification in two countries as a plastic surgeon (Costa Rica and Brazil). He’s a Brazil-trained plastic surgeon in Costa Rica!  Besides his impressive background, he is also a gentleman, a loving, and nurturing human being who makes each patient feel like she or he is his ONLY patient.

I, too, am a patient of Dr. Lev's and found him performing Plastic Surgery in Costa Rica when I was searching for a less expensive alternative to the high priced surgeons here in L.A. where I live. It had been suggested that I look at the impressive medical community of Costa Rica. After surfing the web for Costa Rican medical websites I was led to a list of over 30 plastic surgeons in Costa Rica.

After reading their bios and further research, it was soon crystal clear that Dr. Lev was the surgeon for me! Not only is he a Costa Rican plastic surgeon with a pristine reputation but also he’s certified as a plastic surgeon in not one, but two countries (Brazil and Costa Rica)! Perhaps the most convincing factor was the orthopedic pediatric surgeon I spoke with in New York City who went to Dr. Lev for his own facelift! That call made up my mind for me. If a surgeon from New York City would travel to Costa Rica for his own facelift, then that was all the "convincing" I needed.

Needless to say, my friends and family thought I had lost my mind, being willing to travel to a "third world country" for major surgery. But after they saw the excellent work that had been done on my face and how natural I looked just two weeks after surgery, needless to say, they suddenly all wanted to go to see my Costa Rican plastic surgeon and that "third world country" of his! And some of them did go. And I went with them. And I loved every minute of being there with them, and taking care of them and being a part of their beautiful transformation. That's how this work all began for me. And now I am working for Dr. Lev assisting him with his ever-growing U.S. clientele.

How it works

In case you’re wondering…. there is no extra charges or costs for my assistance with your booking or planning your amazing “Costa Rican Plastic Surgery” adventure. The prices I quote you are the same prices you would be quoted if you booked your surgery on your own through Dr. Lev’s office in Costa Rica.

I am here for you as a gift from Dr. Lev to his patients so they get the attention they want and need from someone who cares about them and wants to help them through their entire Costa Rican journey (that would be me!).

Dr. Lev is a very busy man, as you might expect, and between surgeries and seeing patients in his office, not to mention seeing patients in the hospital, he often doesn’t have time to answer emails and questions expeditiously. And that’s where I come in.

On behalf of Dr. Lev, I answer your emails quickly and will serve as your personal cheerleader, support person and question answerer. If you have questions that I cannot answer myself, I will get the answers by calling Dr. Lev and speaking with him personally on your behalf.

Feel free to have a look around the website. Hopefully most of your questions will be answered here. If you still have questions, you can contact me and I will be happy to assist you.

And if you should want to book a date for surgery, please email me and I will find a date for you.

Please note that Dr. Lev only gives me a few dates in each month of the year to book US patients. He has a huge Costa Rican clientele and I consider it a privilege that he allocates a few dates in each month for US patients. So, once you hold a date, we'll keep it for you for two weeks pending receipt of a signed waiver sent through the mails to me.

All the information on how to obtain the waiver and where to send it is found on the "step by step checklist" on this website.

Welcome and I hope you enjoy your visit.

Be well and as they say in Costa Rica....PURA VIDA!     

Love,
