Thank you for visiting Curacao Telemedicine!
Curaçao Telemedicine is the first online medical center in Curaçao to offer virtual consultations. Our patients speak to our doctors using their smartphone, tablets or computers. So, instead of travelling to the doctor's office, patients book an appointment via WhatsApp and attend the consultation from their own home. This service has proved to be essential for less mobile and immunocompromised patients. Curaçao Telemedicine supports and makes virtual consultations available to everyone. Please feel free to contact us for a virtual consultation anytime. Medical Disclaimer: Curaçao Telemedicine is meant to compliment your regular medical care. In case of a medical emergency, call an ambulance immediately! Do not wait for an appointment here. This service is designed for medical check ups and evaluations. In cases where a thorough physical examination is warranted you will be referred to the nearest physician or you may request a house call.

BACKGROUND AND INFORMATIONOur founder and director is Dr Kahlil Elhage. Born and raised on Curaçao, the Dutch Caribbean, Dr Kahlil Elhage found his passion early on in sports. As a competitive swimmer, he represented the Netherlands Antilles in the 7th FINA World Swimming Championship at age sixteen. It is here that sports medicine first sparked his interest. After retiring from international swimming competitions, he moved to Costa Rica in 2007 to pursue medicine at the University of Medical Sciences , UCIMED. Here, Dr Kahlil Elhage earned his Doctorate in Medicine and proceeded to work for the government for a year in the CCSS (Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social), Costa Rica's Social Security Health System. After that, he returned to Curaçao.
Sports Medicine & Mental Health Dr Kahlil aids athletes competing in various disciplines such as; swimming, water-polo, martial arts, football and baseball. He teaches others to safely enjoy the practice of their sport while still having the satisfaction of pushing themselves to their limits. It is here that his own experiences of competing at the highest levels, make Dr Kahlil Elhage the perfect physician to guide athletes in professional sports. Mental health has proven over the years to be an important component that can make or break a sports career. Dr Kahlil Elhage combines sports medicine with mental health screening and treatment to achieve results and help athletes blossom into the very best version of themselves. Curaçao Telemedicine Philosophy During his studies and residency, Dr Kahlil adopted the kind and social philosophy of Costa Rican Medicine to treat your patients as if they're family. To this day, he applies his skills as a Family Physician at Curaçao. It is the unmet needs of patients combined with lack of accessible transport that made him realize a solution was needed. Thus, Curaçao Telemedicine was created to aid in solving these logistical challenges and make an important step forward in modern medicine. |
