In Colombia, practicing medicine legally requires physicians to meet specific licensing standards and hold official certifications. These include a university diploma, a professional card, registration with the ReTHUS (National Registry of Human Talent in Health), and a certificate of disciplinary record.

At TRT Colombia S.A.S., we exclusively connect our clients with highly qualified doctors who meet all legal requirements and uphold the highest standards of medical ethics and professionalism.

If needed, any of these documents can be provided upon request during your doctor consultation.

We are committed to transparency, integrity, and professionalism, and we only work with physicians who reflect our core values, follow our business policies, and meet Colombia’s legal requirements for medical practice.
