What are healthcare services like in El Tunco?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in El Tunco. They wrote...

"El Tunco, is a small beach town known for its surfing, but it's not particularly known for its healthcare services. The town itself does not have a hospital or major healthcare facility. For minor health issues, there are local clinics and pharmacies available. However, for more serious medical conditions, residents and visitors would likely need to travel to the capital city, San Salvador, which is about an hour away. San Salvador has more advanced healthcare facilities, including hospitals and specialized clinics. It's also important to note that while healthcare in El Salvador is generally affordable compared to U.S. standards, the quality of care can vary, and not all medical staff may be fluent in English. Therefore, travelers are often advised to have travel insurance that covers medical evacuation in case of serious illness or injury," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to El Tunco, El Salvador.
