When we asked members in Uruguay if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...

"For alternative or natural healthcare, although Paysandu has a few resources and options, Montevideo is the place to go. When that doesn't suffice, Buenos Aires, Aregentina (about an hour away from Montevideo) would be a possible option for care and treatment. We had a friend here in Paysandu, whose child needed an emergency hip operation and was quickly taken by ambulance to Montevideo. According to them, they received some of the best treatment they could have asked for. Everything turned out well and they were thankful for the transport. We would definitely consider our home country for medical care and treatment if the options here were not modern or available; all depending on what medical care and treatments we needed specifically," said another in Paysandu, Uruguay.

"Uruguay's capital city, Montevideo, is home to some of the country's best medical specialists. Other cities with a wide selection of medical specialists include Salto, Paysandú, and Rivera. Additionally, the coastal cities of Colonia del Sacramento and Punta del Este are known for their excellent medical care," explained one expat who made the move to Uruguay.
