Ecuador
Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Ecuador if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"The city of Quito is widely known as a medical hub in Ecuador, boasting a wide range of specialists in the fields of cardiology, orthopedics, neurology, ophthalmology, obstetrics and gynecology, pulmonology, and dermatology. The coastal city of Guayaquil is also home to a vibrant medical community with a diverse selection of medical specialists at its disposal. Additionally, the city of Cuenca is renowned for its high-quality healthcare system and its wealth of top-rated medical professionals. Other notable cities with a strong presence in the medical field are Santo Domingo, Loja, and Manta," remarked another expat who made the move to Ecuador.
"I have been able to find providers for all health issues here in Cuenca and all have been of good quality and excellent availability," explained one expat living in Cuenca, Ecuador.
