About Us :

1, 1924. Dr. Rodolfo Arce served as the pediatrician, and a few years later, pediatricians Edgardo Burgos and Pedro Vasco Nuñez joined the team. In 1939, Dr. Rodolfo Arce presented the proposal to the Lions Club of Panama to build a hospital entirely dedicated to children.

In February 1947, Lions Club President Pablo Durán appointed an Executive Committee and a Special Fundraising Committee to initiate the campaign for the Panama Children's Hospital. The Executive Committee was chaired by Lion Raúl Rubio and comprised Lions Vicente Pascual, Pablo Durán, Gustavo Trius, Enoch Adames, Gonzalo Sosa, Leopoldo Benedetti, and Pedro Vasco Núñez. To keep the public informed, a large thermometer was placed in Santa Ana Park, with the sum of 250,000 balboas painted on the top. This figure was sought to provide an equipped building ready for immediate use for children.

Quality

The hospital is renowned for its innovations in pediatric care, such as pioneering the inclusion of parents in the care process by providing lodging for them within the hospital. This patient- and family-centered approach has served as a model for other hospitals in Latin America. The hospital also offers medical residency programs and ongoing professional development for its staff.

Hospital Beds & Infrastructure

It is an excellent place, as a health professional I think it is the best pediatric hospital in Panama, they give their collaborators lunch and dinner. They also allow you to have a rest area so you can sleep after long shifts. To improve would be the infrastructure and amount of parking.

Hello, I would like to know if any foreigner (child) can receive emergency care there, and if there is any way to be part of the public insurance, and what would happen to the costs of hospitalization, medicine, and care in case of emergency. Greetings
