"Healthcare services in Chisinau, are a mix of public and private facilities. The public healthcare system is generally considered to be underfunded and understaffed, with outdated equipment and infrastructure. This often results in long waiting times and limited access to specialized care. Many doctors and nurses have left the country in search of better opportunities, further straining the system. On the other hand, private healthcare facilities in Chisinau offer a higher standard of care, with modern equipment and well-trained staff. These facilities cater to both locals and foreigners, providing a range of services, including general practice, dental care, and specialized treatments. However, private healthcare can be expensive, and not all Moldovans can afford it. Pharmacies are widely available in Chisinau, with both prescription and over-the-counter medications accessible. However, the availability of certain medications may be limited, and it is recommended to bring a supply of any necessary medications when traveling to Moldova. Overall, while healthcare services in Chisinau are available, the quality and accessibility of care can vary significantly between public and private facilities. It is essential for visitors to have comprehensive travel health insurance to cover any potential medical expenses," commented one expat who made the move to Chisinau, Moldova.
