Excellent professional. Before the procedure, he explained everything very clearly and was always available to answer any questions. Excellent pain management; even though the procedure was quite complex, I didn't feel a thing, and the results have been outstanding. I highly recommend him.

I had a root canal on a molar in 2013 with Dr. Samir. The treatment was done with a microscope in a single session. Today, 13 years later, that molar is still intact, with no symptoms or signs of infection. I know how important a good root canal treatment is, and that's why I value the quality and precision of his work even more. He's also a very empathetic doctor who takes the time to explain…

Without a doubt… the best. I arrived in December with a problem in a molar from a root canal I had done many years ago at another clinic… with all his experience, he performed the procedure again and explained every detail. The care is meticulous, and he uses state-of-the-art instruments. His dedication and knowledge in the field make you feel confident returning.

I've been meaning to share my experience with Dr. Samir, and I can only say that he is a true professional. His clear explanation of the procedure, the potential risks, and his meticulous care during the treatment, as well as his follow-up care to ensure my optimal recovery, made all the difference. I hope I never have to go through another endodontic emergency, but at least I know who to turn to.…

Nick Wheeler via Google 5.0 out of 5
I had a serious tooth infection and was already on my second round of antibiotics, but I was still in pain. I was diagnosed in the United States and told I needed a root canal; however, the waiting period to get an appointment was much longer than I was comfortable with given the ongoing pain and infection. Since I already had a trip planned to Costa Rica, I decided to take a chance and have the…

e root canal done there. I was nervous at first, but my experience ended up being excellent. The procedure was smooth, professional, and far less stressful than I expected. When I returned home, my local dentist confirmed that the root canal was done very well, which gave me great peace of mind. I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Tiapa for helping me when I needed urgent care. I am extremely grateful and would highly recommend this endodontist to anyone considering treatment in Costa Rica.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Tiapa. He is extremely skilled, especially in pain management. I went to him for a dental emergency, and the relief was immediate. What surprised me most was that the day after the procedure, the post-treatment discomfort was practically nonexistent. Without a doubt, his work is worth every penny for the quality and peace of mind he provides.

I had a dental emergency during my business trip to Costa Rica and was very fortunate to be treated by Dr. Tiapa on a Sunday. The experience was excellent: from the impeccable pain management to the facilities, which stand out for their cleanliness and state-of-the-art technology. The service was truly flawless. I highly recommend him for his professionalism and availability.

I went to see Dr. Tiapa for a dental problem and I'm very grateful. With great patience and attention to detail, he performed a thorough evaluation until he found the exact cause of my discomfort. He explained my situation very clearly and provided me with an effective solution. Thank you so much, Dr. Tiapa!

In a desperate situation due to intense pain and inflammation just days before leaving the country for an extended work trip, I decided to seek the best dental emergency care available in the country. After reviewing information about his diagnoses, treatments, results, and approach to emergency care, I didn't hesitate to request his services. With Dr. Samir, I not only found a solution that…

t allowed me to embark on my trip pain-free and with complete peace of mind, but the diagnosis also revealed a severe condition that other doctors had failed to detect for years. Now that I'm back in the country and have begun a surgical procedure to address the root cause of many of my infectious problems, including long-standing severe sinusitis, I know I'm in the best professional hands. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Samir Tiapa and can vouch for the fact that you will find the correct and accurate diagnosis, the appropriate and, if possible, painless treatment, and ultimately, the results evidenced in each of his patients' stories and testimonials. Beyond his professional profile, which I have already mentioned... You will also find a wonderful human being who is always ready to help and address the questions and concerns of his patients. Thank you, Dr. Samir!

I went for an evaluation because they couldn't determine what my endodontic problem was. Dr. Taipa was able to do so and successfully performed the procedure. I must now report that my experience with the doctor has been excellent: very professional, he explains the problem clearly and with images. The treatment, attention, and care are exceptional. The doctor is so interested in the patient…

that he even calls the day after the procedure to check on me. I didn't experience any pain at any time and only took a pain reliever as a precaution. I barely felt the anesthetic injections. The cleanliness of the office and the overall hygiene during the procedure are impeccable. During the procedure, he explains each step. So I can recommend Dr. Taipa one hundred percent. These days, finding a professional of this caliber is sadly not common. Thank you very much, Dr. Taipa. Blessings.

In a dental emergency a few days ago, during my holiday in Costa Rica, I was referred to Dr. Tiapa by a friend. Dr. Tiapa came to his office on a Sunday to evaluate my situation. He diagnosed with care, explained everything thoroughly and patiently. The procedure itself was painless (except, of course the first few seconds of the first shot of analgesics which I personally hate anyway), and it was…

carried out with the utmost care and professionalism, with state of the art equipment and materials. Dr. Tiapa showed and explained to me the before and after x-ray pictures, provided all the info about how to proceed once I am back home, and sent me detailed documentation. And asked for, and replied immediately to, a follow up on how I was feeling. I had no pain whatsoever after the procedure. If he weren’t 10 thousand kilometers from me, I would happily choose him as my dentist. I understand why people come back to him and his team from all over the world. Thank you, doctor!
