The country's most-technologically advanced medical center is getting better. Cedimat, the medical center at the government-owned Plaza de la Salud, reports that they will be installing the country's first Pediatric Cardiovascular Unit, a RD$25 million investment in equipment and installations, in conjunction with the Heart Care Foundation. Several Cedimat physicians are training abroad to work in the unit. This will enable children's operations to take place all year round, and not just during periodic visits by physicians from abroad sponsored by the foundation. Cedimat reports a total investment of RD$250 million in medical equipment.
Milagros Urena, director of Cedimat told Listin Diario that they have seen an increase in demand for their services. Cedimat has become an option for Dominicans of all social backgrounds to receive high-quality medical services comparable to advanced medical centers abroad.
