Frequently Asked Questions
We've answered the most common questions before your visit. If your question isn't listed here, please contact us.
Yes. For procedures performed under sedation, you’ll need someone to accompany you and drive you home, since you won’t be able to drive for the rest of the day.
The procedures are performed under guided sedation, so that the patient experiences no pain during the procedure and has no unpleasant memories of it.
The duration varies depending on the procedure, and in addition to the procedure itself, you’ll need to factor in the preparation beforehand and recovery after sedation. When you schedule your appointment, we’ll let you know how much time to set aside for your specific case.
We work with the country's leading insurance companies. We recommend that you contact us before your appointment to confirm your policy coverage and the appropriate procedure.

What those who trust CEGAS say
Our patients' peace of mind is our best quality indicator. These are some of the experiences shared by those who have visited our clinic in Plaza San Fernando.
I was very afraid of having an endoscopy, but the CEGAS team made me feel very calm. The process was fast, without any discomfort, and the doctor's explanation was very clear. Excellent care at San Fernando.

I loved the comprehensive approach. They didn't just give me a diet; we worked on how stress was affecting my digestion. My quality of life has improved tremendously.

I went for a chronic gastritis problem that no one could manage to control. At CEGAS, they not only gave me the right treatment but also explained the causes in a simple way. The human touch is exceptional.

The clinic is impeccable and very well located on Vía España. The appointment process is organized and I didn't have to wait too long. Very professional in every sense.

It's incredible that such an advanced study as the capsule endoscopy can be done so easily. I didn't feel a thing and the diagnosis was precise. A great technological option in Panama.

I took my father for his follow-up colonoscopy. We were nervous, but the professionalism of the doctors gave us a lot of confidence. Without a doubt, the best gastroenterology center.
