How are healthcare services in Panama?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Panama, they replied...
"Care will not be as good unless you live in the city. Insurance will not cover pre existing," explained one expat living in Bocas del Toro, Panama.
"Like many countries, Panama's best medical facilities are concentrated in urban areas. Punta Pacifica, a private facility in Panama City, is considered the most technologically advanced hospital in Latin America and is affiliated with Johns Hopkins Hospital. There are other hospitals such as Paitilla, San Fernando, Nacional and more. Nearly all doctors in Panama speak English, as do many nurses. Panama City in particular is home to superb healthcare facilities. In fact, the city is one of the regional leaders for medical tourism and dental work, plastic surgery, stem cells treatments, and joint replacement surgeries. ," wrote Business Panama from Business Panama Group.
