I need beaucoup dental work and I'll be slipping through Jalisco, Guerrero, Oaxaca and the D.F. this coming winter. Anyone contented enough with a dentist in any of those places to pass along their name/locale?

If you need a lot of work, where will you be staying for long enough to get it all done?

I guess once you're in a lifeboat, it's inadvisable to disembark until you reach shore. I accept this may translate to a daily diet of flan and pozole for a stretch, but as to where it'll be, I'm open to any and all specific suggestions regarding dentists readers've personally grown to know and love.

OK. In Chapala, where I lived for over a decade, I found an excellent dentist, after trying many other for years before that. He is Eloy Barragan, and I think he has a website: http://www.chapaladentalcare.com/ and an e-mail address: [email protected]

Have some idea of what you will need, and plan ahead. He is very, very good, and it may take time to get an appointment, for that reason.

I also have personal experience with Dr. Eloy Barragan. He is excellent and had a great staff back in 2012.

Thanks for the tip. I'd already penciled in Guadalajara on my itinerary, too.

I messaged Dr. Barragan last week and no response as of yet. I'd appreciate any other suggestions.

Expecting to get a reply from any Mexican website, e-mail or even a telephone call, should not be expected. Mexico is still a "face to face" country and a cash society. Ideally, you would walk into an office, or business, and offer a greeting before you would even be acknowledged. Once done, and still smiling, you would ask for whatever assistance you might require.
That said, you could try a telephone call and make an appointment that way.

Well, he's a dentist, so maybe my smile won't frighten him as much as it does normal people. Having said that, a little bird gave me that email address, RVGringo, so ......

So.....Now try the phone. Make the appointment.
