Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Kiev if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"I went to a clinic which serves Americans and Europeans, but I had to pay a lot of money for simple services. I don't remember my total cost of the MRI and other procedures. They found a 9mm kidney stone which was confirmed by the doctors at the V.A. hospital in New York," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Kiev, Ukraine.
"Yes, there are a good number of medical specialists in Kiev. People in Kiev can access a wide range of medical specialists, including general practitioners, specialists in internal medicine, cardiologists, neurologists, oncologists, and many more. For highly specialized medical care, people in Kiev can go to the Institute of Cardiology, the Institute of Neurosurgery, the Institute of Urology, the Institute of Oncology, and the Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics, among other specialized medical centers," commented one expat who made the move to Kiev, Ukraine.
