What are medical services in Budapest like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Budapest, they replied...
"Medical services in Budapest, are generally of high quality, with well-trained medical professionals and modern facilities. Both public and private healthcare options are available, with public healthcare being more affordable but sometimes facing longer waiting times. Private healthcare facilities offer a wider range of services and shorter waiting times but can be more expensive. Many medical professionals in Budapest speak English, making it easier for tourists and expats to communicate their needs. Pharmacies are widely available throughout the city, and emergency services can be accessed by dialing 112.

"There may not be the same new offices but the quality of care is as good if not better than in the USA. Had several surgeries (hip replacement, cataract, breast, hernia) with excellent care, all included in the insurance, after care in a rehab center as I live alone with no help - all included. People are people - sometimes they have a bad day - so do I. You live in the real world," said another expat in Budapest, Hungary.
