Will I need to travel to see a specialist?

"San Ignacio has a number of medical specialists available, including general practitioners, dentists, optometrists, and gynecologists. For highly specialized medical care, people typically travel to larger cities such as Belize City or to the United States. In Belize City, there are a number of hospitals and clinics that offer a wide range of medical services, including specialized care. In the United States, people can access a variety of specialized medical care, including advanced treatments and procedures," said another expat in San Ignacio, Belize.
