General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: clinic relocated - Google Maps shows their former Paseo Tulum/Golf Drive (Playacar Fase II) address as "Permanently closed", with an active listing (same phone number) now at P.º Xaman-Ha MZ-25-Local 9, Plaza Playacar, open 24 hours; recorded that new address, phone +52 984 131 5815, first Google rating 4.7 (65 reviews), and geo coordinates. The website shown on their Maps profile (dentalcareplayacar.com.mx) did not resolve (DNS failure) so could not be confirmed live. |
