What are emergency services like in Kiev?
When we asked members about emergency services in Kiev, they wrote...
"I have visited the IMP clinic in Kyiv and was surprised by that fact, that all the staff spoke English! This clinic is private and I think this is the reason why the quality of the services was high. The doctor who examined me was very experienced in her job and I was treated very well. I was extremely surprised when the administrator contacted the insurance company herself, and I didn't have to call and deal with it. I was suggested to pay myself and then make the reimbursement of the expenses. I was given all the necessary documents and didn't have any trouble with my insurance company. From my viewpoint any other public clinic will render such services," wrote a member who made the move to Kiev, Ukraine.

"Emergency services in Kiev, are similar to those in many other countries, providing assistance in cases of medical emergencies, fires, and criminal incidents. To call for an ambulance in Kiev, you would need to dial the emergency number, which is 103. Once connected, you should provide the operator with your location, the nature of the emergency, and any other relevant information. The ambulance service in Kiev is operated by the government and is generally reliable, but response times may vary depending on the location and traffic conditions. It is important to note that not all emergency responders may speak English, so it can be helpful to have a local or a translation app available to assist with communication," explained one expat living in Kiev, Ukraine.
