clinic de Especialidades Quirúrgicas S.A.S. (CEQ)

Clinic de Especialidades Quirúrgicas (CEQ) is a private multi-specialty surgical facility in Bogotá's Teusaquillo district. The clinic operates from a single building with four specialized departments. This setup supports smooth patient flow from preoperative preparation through surgery to recovery.

Accreditations and Safety Standards

The Secretaria de Salud authorizes the clinic for adult hospitalization, otorhinolaryngology, and plastic surgery. ISO 13485 certification covers the sterilization process, so all surgical instruments meet international quality standards. CEQ also reports to SIVIGILA, Colombia's national public health surveillance system.

Dedicated staff verify supply safety using chemical and biological indicators. The imaging department follows strict radiation protection protocols.

Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery

The plastic surgery department has two operating rooms and six recovery gurneys. Specialists perform a wide range of body and facial procedures:

• Rhinoplasty and septoplasty for nose reshaping and breathing correction
• Mammoplasty – both breast augmentation and reduction
• Liposculpture and liposuction using Vaser technology for body contouring
• Gluteoplasty for buttock enhancement via implants or fat transfer
• Surgical facelift and endoscopic forehead contouring
• Vaginoplasty and laser vaginal rejuvenation

Dr. Jorge Romero coordinates anesthesia and perioperative care. He guides patients on pain management, diet, and warning signs during recovery. Surgeons use small-incision techniques for many procedures. For double chin liposuction, incisions hide in the chin crease.

Recovery follows a "VIP Recovery" approach. Patients stay in private rooms with 24-hour nursing support. The clinic provides nutritional menus tailored to each procedure. Postoperative care often includes 10 professional massages to aid healing.

Medical Technology and Diagnostics

CEQ has on-site diagnostic services to reduce wait times. The facility includes a clinical laboratory, a 24-hour pharmacy, and a blood bank for complex cases. Diagnostic capabilities include:

• Radiology services for preoperative assessments
• Non-ionizing diagnostic imaging
• Ultrasound for timely internal examinations
• Equipment maintenance programs

Doctors can complete all necessary lab tests on-site, including COVID-19 testing. The central sterilization area uses internationally certified systems.

Services for International Patients

The Foreigners Service at CEQ manages all logistics directly – no third-party agencies. This means a medical institution oversees every step of your journey. International patients can choose all-inclusive plans covering:

• 5-star hotel lodging for patient and one companion
• Private airport, hotel, and clinic transfers
• Full laboratory tests and post-operative medications
• 24-hour nursing support and 10 postoperative recovery massages
• Insurance coverage for the duration of stay

A companion stays at no extra cost. The clinic provides personalized meal menus and transfers to all follow-up appointments. Patients should arrive one hour before their procedure with an adult companion.
