How are healthcare services in Fiji?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Fiji, they replied...
"It is better to go to a private hospital or private clinic rather than waiting in along queue waiting to be addressed by a few rude nurses," said another in Suva, Fiji.

"Fiji offers a range of healthcare services, including primary care, hospital care, and specialist services. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is available to all citizens and permanent residents. The quality of public healthcare in Fiji is generally good, with a range of modern facilities and well-trained staff. Foreign residents are able to access the public healthcare system, although they may be required to pay for some services. Expats in Fiji can use the public healthcare system, but they may need to pay for some services. Expats may also choose to use private healthcare services, which are available in Fiji," explained one expat who made the move to Fiji.
