What are medical services in Tirana like?

"Medical services in Tirana, are a mix of public and private healthcare facilities. The public healthcare system is generally considered to be underfunded and understaffed, with outdated equipment and infrastructure. However, there are several private hospitals and clinics in the city that offer higher quality care, often with more modern facilities and equipment. These private facilities tend to be more expensive but are preferred by those who can afford them. Pharmacies are widely available throughout the city, and most medications can be obtained without a prescription. It is recommended for visitors to have travel health insurance and to seek medical care at private facilities for better quality treatment," remarked another expat who made the move to Tirana, Albania.
