6.6 out of 10
Overall score
Centro Odontologico Paitilla is a well-established multi-specialist clinic founded in 1990 in a major Panama City medical hub, using BioHorizons implants and offering a broad specialist team with confirmed English capability. The uniformly 5-star, zero-verified review pattern on a high volume warrants caution, though review content is substantively varied and includes genuine English-speaking tourist accounts from Miami. Prices are not published and are reportedly above average for Panama City.

I was treated by Dr. Bernardo Lukowiecki, and the treatment was excellent—fast, efficient, and high-quality. The facilities were modern and clean, and the support staff was highly qualified. I highly recommend it.
I went to see Dr. Bernardo after being referred by a friend. I felt a little insecure and nervous, but after just five minutes of sitting with him, I felt very calm. He explained everything clearly, and what impressed me most was how quickly and efficiently he finished the entire procedure. I'm very happy with the results of the fillings he applied; they look very natural!
I cannot warn anyone enough: Dr. Bernardo Lucoweiki is an absolute scam dentist. He does very sloppy fillings, messy and uneven. I came back for him to re-do a filling that basically fell off after a week. He re-did it and it was so uneven that it is affecting my bite and the other side of my mouth. Besides that, he was constantly pushing veneers instead of focusing on actual dental health.…

Honestly seems like some sort of scam dentist with how bad the fillings turned out. DO NOT go to this dentist if you value your dental health & wish to get honest work for your money.
Read the reviews and figured i would take a chance. Saw DR. Bernardo and had a fantastic experience. I am always suspicious of new experiences with new people. My wife called the clinic at 8am and we got a 930 appt. Upon walking in the clinic you can see it is clean and employees are happy. We met dr. Bernardo who took xrays and did an examination.

can tell he cares and wants to take care of you and make sure your happy. I had a small problem which the doctor told me about and the price to fix. For less that 200 dollars I received an exam xrays and a hole in my tooth fixed. And more importantly I feel better. Im no dentist, he could of done more work that was unnecessary, but he did exactly what i needed and fixed the problem.but if I was in the US this might of cost a thousand or more. Dr Bernardo a Colombian trained dentist is my new dentist, we live in Florida but travel several times a year to panama. During our visits we will make sure we get in dental visits with our new dentist Dr. Bernardo and his beautiful clean clinic. Thank you very much.
I'm too scared to go to the dentist, but my doctor makes it feel like a breeze. His care and charisma are incredible. Dr. Bernardo Lukowiecki
Dr. Lukowiecki is excellent, an expert. He scheduled me without an appointment, even though I was a new patient, because it was an emergency. He's very professional and advanced in dental science.

I have been a patient of Dr. Bernardo Lukowiecki for almost twenty years. Although my husband and I no longer live in Panama full time, we still make a point to visit his office twice a year. We are always impressed by his professionalism and the excellent care provided by both Dr. Lukowiecki and the entire clinic staff.
