Testimonials
Had immediate attention to a snake bite. Friendly and professional.
Amanda Offut
Very helpful and professional staff! We had a great experience using them for our PCR tests. Lifeguard sent an employee out to our hotel to conduct the tests and it was very organized. I paid them a visit later during our trip for a water-borne illness and the doctor prescribed meds that helped out with the situation and ensured I had a quick recovery.
Hannah Miller
Everyone was so knowledgeable and nice and patient! They explained things to us thoroughly, even in English! We were taking care of immediately by the kindest angels. They took us to get x-rays, stitches, and cleaned us up well. We could not have hoped for better care. Nicole and Johan calmly explained everything to us every step of the way. We wish all of our health care experiences were this loving.

My husband had an accident while we stayed in Santa Teresa, Mario and his assistant came so fast at our AirBB, we had no electricity, they were so professional, efficient. They took the good decision, they bring him by ambulance, boat to San José Hospital, he had a perfect surgery and he is fine. Thank you so much. Pura Vida.

Recently, I contracted a case of dengue fever while in Santa Teresa. Lifeguard Costa Rica provided quick response, with a doctor coming to my rental house right away, and blood test results within less than an hour. I was attended by Dr. Vargas, who was communicative on WhatsApp over the next few days while I was monitored with additional blood tests. She even provided follow through advice after I had to transfer to San Jose to be hospitalized after I developed a more severe case than usual. The cost was inexpensive by US standards, and the attention I received was better.
