How are local medical facilities in France?
We asked members about local medical facilities in France, they wrote...
"The hospital is on the edge of town but accessible by bus. Good quality care and the doctors speak English. The hospital is public and very affordable even without French health care," explained one expat living in Epinal, France.
"France has a strong healthcare system, and its citizens are generally pleased with the quality of medical care they receive. Among those surveyed in a survey of the European healthcare systems conducted by the EU, 83% were satisfied with the medical care they received in the past year, far higher than the EU average of 72%. France is home to a large number of world-renowned medical facilities, with cutting edge medical technology, experienced medical staff, and a high standard of healthcare. In addition to this, many of the treatments and procedures offered in France are either covered by public healthcare or heavily subsidized, allowing citizens to receive high quality medical care without being overly burdened with the costs," said another in France.
