What are medical services in Kharkov like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Kharkov, they replied...
"Medical services in Kharkov, are a mix of public and private healthcare facilities. Public hospitals and clinics are generally underfunded, with outdated equipment and infrastructure. The quality of care in these facilities can be inconsistent, and patients may experience long waiting times. On the other hand, private healthcare facilities offer better quality care, modern equipment, and shorter waiting times, but at a higher cost. Many medical professionals in Kharkov are well-trained, but language barriers can be an issue, as not all healthcare providers speak English. It is recommended for foreigners to have comprehensive health insurance and consider seeking medical care in private facilities for better quality services," remarked another expat who made the move to Kharkov, Ukraine.
