What are healthcare services like in Punta Cana?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Punta Cana. They wrote...

"Healthcare services in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic are generally of good quality, especially in private hospitals and clinics. The city is home to several modern medical facilities that are equipped with the latest technology. These facilities offer a wide range of services, from routine check-ups and emergency care to specialized treatments and surgeries. Many doctors and medical staff in Punta Cana are bilingual, speaking both Spanish and English, which can be beneficial for foreign patients. However, it's important to note that healthcare services can be expensive, particularly for non-residents. Therefore, having comprehensive travel insurance that covers medical expenses is highly recommended. Despite the high standards in private healthcare, public healthcare in Punta Cana, as in the rest of the Dominican Republic, can be less reliable due to limited resources and overcrowding," said another expat in Punta Cana, the Dominican Republic.
