The youth and Teen Center of Clínica Las Condes is a place to help solve both physical, psychological health problems as well as meet the social needs of adolescents and youths of both sexes, between the ages of 10 years to 24 years and 11 months old.
This center is an area exclusively for young people, where they are greeted with warmth and respect for their rights.
The multidisciplinary team also ensures privacy and confidentiality, unless it poses a threat to their physical or psychological safety. Both objectives are advantageous for parents; as they have other trusted adults who can tell their children what is really happening and help lead them properly, in addition to informing children of important risks.
