GoodMed is an integrated health and dental membership center operating three locations across Costa Rica: Momentum Pinares, Momentum Escazu, and Comercial Sady Maria in Alajuela. Unlike traditional dental clinics that charge per visit, GoodMed operates on an affordable monthly membership model that gives patients access to dental services, general medicine, clinical laboratory testing, medical imaging, physiotherapy, and specialist consultations through a single plan. The center's dental division offers both a dedicated dental membership (GoodSmile) and a comprehensive health membership (GoodHealth) that includes dental care alongside broader medical services.
Why Choose GoodMed
GoodMed's core differentiator is its membership-based healthcare model, a fundamentally different approach from traditional fee-per-service dental clinics. The GoodSmile dental membership starts from just 3,950 colones per month for a group plan covering 3 family members, while an individual dental membership including orthodontic coverage is available for 28,250 colones per month. These memberships provide ongoing dental access with benefits from the first day of enrollment, removing the financial barrier that often causes patients to delay routine dental care. The broader GoodHealth membership (6,500 colones individual, 17,000 colones for 3 members) adds general medical consultations, laboratory testing, and specialist access to the dental coverage. GoodMed also offers a mobile app where members can check their health status and order medications directly from their phone, integrating digital convenience into the care experience. The center provides GoodPacks, bundled laboratory test packages at accessible prices covering prenatal, metabolic, thyroid, diabetic, hormonal, nutritional, and general health screenings, giving patients a comprehensive preventive health ecosystem beyond dental care alone.
Treatments and Specialties
Dental services include cleanings, checkups, fillings, and specialized orthodontic treatments covered under the GoodSmile membership. General medical consultations provide immediate, personalized primary care. Clinical laboratory services offer a full range of blood tests, urinalysis, and specialized panels through bundled GoodPack pricing. Medical imaging includes X-rays, ultrasound, MRI, and CT scans using advanced equipment. Physiotherapy provides rehabilitation and mobility recovery sessions. Specialist consultations cover gynecology, pediatrics, cardiology, and additional medical specialties, all accessible within the membership network.
