How good is healthcare in Panama?
Panama City has the best services and attention in the region with a number of world-class hospitals available. Many of the doctors are bilingual and have been highly trained in the US in using the latest in technology and medical procedures. Nurses and technicians are equally highly trained in their fields. Panama also offers healthcare at a much lower cost than in the US and other areas for the same types of procedures such as cardiology, ophthalmology, gynecology, dental implants, plastic surgery and many others. As a result, Panama has become a “Health Tourism” destination because of the excellent service and attention patients from abroad receive at substantial savings. For those enjoying the pleasures of living at Gatun Rainforest Lake Village on the Atlantic side, medical attention is also available at recently inaugurated hospitals and clinics that are fully capable of taking care of your health requirements.
