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

"Healthcare services in Sagres are generally of high quality, with both public and private options available. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and provides free or low-cost care to all residents, including expatriates. Private healthcare is also available and is often preferred by those who can afford it for its shorter wait times and more personalized care. In Sagres, there are local health centers known as Centros de Saúde, where residents can receive primary care services. These centers are staffed by general practitioners, nurses, and sometimes specialists. For more complex treatments or emergencies, residents may need to travel to larger cities like Lagos or Portimão, which have larger hospitals and a wider range of specialists. Pharmacies are widely available in Sagres and throughout Portugal. They are typically well-stocked and staffed by knowledgeable pharmacists who can provide advice on minor health issues. Dental care is also available in Sagres, with both public and private options. However, public dental care is limited and many people choose to use private dental services instead. Overall, while Sagres is a small town, it has access to a range of healthcare services. However, for more specialized care, residents may need to travel to larger cities," wrote a member who made the move to Sagres, Portugal.
