What are healthcare services like in Bocas del Toro?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Bocas del Toro. They wrote...

"Bocas del Toro offers a variety of healthcare services, including primary care, emergency care, and specialty care. Primary care services are provided by a variety of clinics and hospitals, while emergency care is available at the local hospital. Specialty care is available at the local hospital as well as at private clinics. The quality of healthcare services in Bocas del Toro is generally good, with many doctors and nurses having received training in the United States or Europe. Additionally, the cost of healthcare services in Bocas del Toro is generally lower than in other parts of Panama," said another expat in Bocas del Toro, Panama.

"Bocas has just finished a new modern hospital Centrally located on Isla Colon. There is a quality Med clinic for daily no emergency needs. Several well stocked pharmacies. There are 3 dentist offices. Very good care for more serious instances can be had in Changuenola which is about an hour. Private state of the art care in David or panama city is available too. Depending on the location (private vs. public care) costs can be a fraction of those in the western world. Actual quality care can be had in the public hospitals for free. (lots of retirees unfortunately do not trust these hospitals and attempt to disqualify them ?????)," wrote a member who made the move to Bocas del Toro, Panama.
