La Paz dentist?
My wife needs some serious dental work done, which is likely beyond our means in the US. We have heard of good dental facilities in La Paz.....Anyone
help us with contact numbers etc? Thanks

This has been beat to death, but here you go:
Speaks English, answers e mails, etc.
Yxchel Clavel Gutierrez
Arte Dental Essex
dentalessexlapaz@yahoo.com
612 122 3136
entre Allende y Normal
Durango 641
Fracc. Perla CP 23040
LaPaz
Have to see the Dentist to get quotes, but extremely reasonable.
Have used Yxchel for 5 years and a 10 all the way.

FYI: this may have been "beat to death" but please use the search function "dentist" and try to wade through the postings to find anything remotely
useful..I could not...Much of it is consumed by the perennial off topic posters peeing on each other....I appreciate your info.........

really happy with her. Very professional, and reasonably priced. I just saw her last week and have another appointment on Jueves.

La Paz Dentists Talamantes - Eduardo(father) at 612 1227343 Son Saenz at 612 122 2202. Recommended by a few Pacenos. With my bad memory and all
the good info on Nomads I keep a notebook to jot down these important names and numbers! Good luck! Tio

Chuckie,
Several of us in Mulege have used Yxchel and are very happy with her..
Best if you take cash (peso) to pay with also.. Her equipment is better than our dentist in the states. I believe she is also a professor or teaches
at the University...
Also, if you look for a place to stay we recommend Casa Buena B&B directly behind the mercury marine store.. gated, clean, reasonable, easy
to get anywhere from
You can get their info from Mike and Elizabeth,, they just stayed there last week.. and they have also used Yxchel..
good luck

Yxchel takes credit cards.
So does Casa Buena.
She also has an Implant Specialist working with her in her clinic now.

I personally think that Talamantes is the best dentist in all of La Paz and have used him for 3 implants as well as lots of other work. I have not
used the son, but several of my friends have and he gets great reviews too.

Every time the topic is revisited, there is new info. This is what I have compiled so far, no personal experience:
1) Dr. Eduardo Talamantes (Junior): Reforma 335, La Paz, BCS. Phone 122-7343, 122-6855
I see some other number now, and also for a farther - not Junior. Hopefully Nomads would correct - which one, and what number.
2) Dr Jose Sanchez Lopez Salgado, Cel 612 149 4051, tel: 612 125 1604, Aquiles Serdan No 3835 - 1y Colima Colonia Pueblo Nuevo, CP 23060.
3) Dra. Patricia Camon Sanchez: 124-2224 office,
612 141-6171 Cell - she speaks English. The office phone answerer doesn't.
About paying in pesos: the only time I had to do this in Baja, was in Ensenada, and the price was quoted in USD. When they quote in USD, paying in
pesos is usually more expensive.
