What are medical services in Negril like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Negril, they replied...
"Medical services in Negril are relatively limited compared to larger cities. There are small clinics and private doctors available for basic healthcare needs, but for more advanced treatments or emergencies, patients may need to travel to larger hospitals in nearby cities like Montego Bay or Kingston. Pharmacies can be found in the town, but it is recommended to bring any necessary medications with you. It is also important to note that healthcare facilities in Jamaica may not be up to the same standards as those in more developed countries, so it is advised to have travel insurance that covers medical evacuation in case of serious illness or injury," remarked another expat who made the move to Negril, Jamaica.
