What are healthcare services like in Paysandu?

"Healthcare services in Paysandu are generally of a high standard, with both public and private healthcare facilities available. The public healthcare system, known as ASSE, provides free or low-cost healthcare to all residents, including access to general practitioners, specialists, and hospital care. However, it is often characterized by long waiting times and overcrowded facilities. On the other hand, private healthcare in Paysandu is known for its high-quality services and shorter waiting times. Many residents opt for private health insurance, which gives them access to private hospitals and clinics. These facilities often have more modern equipment and a wider range of services compared to public hospitals. Pharmacies are widely available throughout Paysandu, providing over-the-counter and prescription medications. Some pharmacies also offer basic medical services, such as blood pressure checks and vaccinations. Emergency services in Paysandu are reliable, with ambulances available 24/7. The city also has a number of well-equipped hospitals capable of handling emergencies. Despite the high standard of healthcare, there can be language barriers as not all healthcare professionals in Paysandu speak English. Therefore, it might be beneficial for non-Spanish speaking residents or visitors to have a translator or to learn basic Spanish medical terms. Overall, Paysandu, like much of Uruguay, offers comprehensive healthcare services, with a choice between public and private healthcare depending on individual needs and preferences," commented one expat who made the move to Paysandu, Uruguay.
