How are healthcare services Granada?

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Granada, they replied:

"Granada offers a wide range of healthcare services to its citizens. The public healthcare system is provided by the Spanish National Health System (SNS), which is funded by the government and provides free healthcare to all citizens. The SNS operates a network of public hospitals and clinics throughout the city, offering a range of services including general medicine, emergency care, and specialist care. Additionally, there are a number of private healthcare providers in Granada, offering a range of services including general medicine, specialist care, and cosmetic surgery. Private healthcare providers often offer more personalized care and shorter waiting times than the public system. Granada also has a number of pharmacies, providing prescription and over-the-counter medications," said an expat in Granada.

"I would say medical care is excellent. For chronic medical conditions, it may be difficult to get an insurance and they will have to pay more. there are other expats with chronic condtions who are able to get private insurance," commented one expat living in Granada, Spain.
