Will I need to travel to see a specialist?

"Yes, Grenoble has a wide variety of medical specialists. The CHU de Grenoble (Regional University Hospital Centre) has an extensive collection of medical departments, ranging from surgeons to dentists and gynaecologists. The centre also has specialties such as paediatrics, cardiology, urology, and endocrinology. In addition to this, Grenoble also has a number of private clinics with specialists in fields such as orthopaedics, plastic surgery, and optometry. For highly specialized medical care, people often go to the university hospital or one of the private clinics," said another expat in Grenoble, France.
