What are healthcare services like in Canoa?

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

"Healthcare services in Canoa are relatively basic, with a small local clinic available for minor health issues. The clinic is staffed by local doctors and nurses who provide general medical care. For more serious health concerns, residents often have to travel to larger cities like Quito or Guayaquil. The country's public healthcare system is accessible to all residents, including expatriates. However, the quality of care can vary, and wait times can be long. Many residents and expats choose to use private healthcare, which offers a higher standard of care and shorter wait times, but at a higher cost. Pharmacies are readily available and stocked with a wide range of medications. Overall, while basic healthcare is accessible in Canoa, access to specialized or emergency care can be challenging due to its remote location," said a member in Canoa, Ecuador.
