"Saipan, has a limited number of medical specialists due to its small size and remote location. For highly specialized medical care, people often travel to nearby countries such as the Philippines, Japan, or South Korea. Additionally, some residents may also seek specialized care in the United States, particularly in Hawaii or California," remarked another expat who made the move to Saipan, the United States.
