Answer this Question

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

"Healthcare services in Porec are generally of a high standard, with both public and private facilities available. The city has a local health center that provides basic medical services, including general practice, pediatrics, gynecology, and dental care. There are also several pharmacies in Porec where prescription and over-the-counter medications can be obtained. For more specialized care, residents may need to travel to larger cities such as Rijeka or Zagreb. However, Porec does have a number of private clinics and specialists, offering services such as physiotherapy, dermatology, and ophthalmology. Emergency medical services are available and are typically responsive. The city is also serviced by a local ambulance service for urgent care needs. Healthcare in Croatia is funded through a mandatory health insurance system. This means that all residents of Porec, including expatriates who are legal residents, have access to healthcare services. However, many people also choose to take out additional private health insurance for more comprehensive coverage. The quality of healthcare in Porec is generally good, with well-trained medical staff and modern facilities. However, as with any healthcare system, there can be waiting times for non-emergency procedures and specialist appointments. Language can sometimes be a barrier to healthcare in Porec, as not all medical staff may be fluent in English. However, many doctors and nurses in the city do speak English, particularly those working in private clinics. Overall, Porec offers a range of healthcare services to meet the needs of its residents and visitors," explained one expat living in Porec, Croatia.
