About Dr. Mónica Chaves Lavagni

Due to my father’s influence and admiration, medicine has always been a part of my life. I decided to become a dermatologist after suffering from a skin condition. I find great satisfaction in helping people heal, understand, and manage their skin diseases and problems.

I also offer the Mixed Medicine Service, which allows patients, based on my prescription, to pick up their medications at the CCSS (Costa Rican Social Security Fund).
