What are healthcare services like in Playa Grande?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Playa Grande. They wrote...

"Playa Grande, offers a range of healthcare services for both residents and tourists. The healthcare system in Costa Rica is known for its high quality and affordability, and Playa Grande is no exception. There are local clinics and pharmacies available for basic healthcare needs. For more serious conditions, there are hospitals in nearby cities like Nicoya and Liberia, which are equipped with modern facilities and English-speaking staff. Costa Rica also has a universal healthcare system, so residents have access to free healthcare services. However, many also opt for private healthcare, which offers shorter wait times and often more personalized care. For tourists, travel insurance is recommended to cover any potential healthcare costs. Dental care is also readily available, with many people traveling to Costa Rica specifically for affordable, high-quality dental services. Alternative healthcare services, such as naturopathy and acupuncture, are also available in the area," explained one expat living in Playa Grande, Costa Rica.
