"There may be a limited number of medical specialists in Lake Atitlan, as it is a rural area. For highly specialized medical care, people often travel to larger cities like Guatemala City or Antigua, where there are more advanced medical facilities and a greater number of specialists. In some cases, individuals may even seek medical care in neighboring countries like Mexico or the United States for complex treatments or procedures," said another expat in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala.
