How are healthcare services in Chisinau?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Chisinau, they replied...

"Healthcare services in Chisinau, the capital city of Moldova, are provided through a mix of public and private facilities. The public healthcare system includes hospitals, clinics, and specialized medical centers that offer a range of services, from primary care to specialized treatments. However, the public healthcare system in Chisinau faces challenges such as outdated equipment, insufficient funding, and a shortage of medical professionals. In recent years, private healthcare facilities have emerged in Chisinau, offering higher quality services and modern equipment. These private clinics and hospitals cater to patients seeking specialized treatments, dental care, and cosmetic procedures. Some of these private facilities have partnerships with international healthcare providers, ensuring access to advanced medical treatments and technologies. Pharmacies are widely available throughout Chisinau, with both public and private pharmacies offering a range of medications. However, the availability of certain medications may be limited, and it is recommended for visitors to bring a sufficient supply of any necessary prescription medications. While healthcare professionals in Chisinau are generally well-trained, language barriers may be an issue for non-Russian or non-Romanian speakers. It is advisable for foreigners to seek medical care at private facilities where English-speaking staff are more likely to be available. Overall, healthcare services in Chisinau are accessible, but the quality of care may vary between public and private facilities. Visitors and expatriates are advised to have comprehensive health insurance that covers medical treatment in private facilities and, if necessary, medical evacuation to a nearby country with more advanced healthcare services," commented one expat who made the move to Chisinau, Moldova.
