Quality of Healthcare in Surrounding Area

I would probably visit a private physician in the U.K.

Prescription Medicines

Yes, mostly (not Transderm Scop for motion sickness and not Botox). The Rx I do use I get and pay for at local pharmacy...they are a fraction of the U.S. with Ins cost and are packaged (blister packs for everything) differently but virtually identical to US Rx.
