Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Florence if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"Yes, Florence has a good number of medical specialists. People in Florence can go to the Careggi University Hospital for highly specialized medical care. The hospital is one of the largest and most advanced in the country, and it is home to a wide range of specialists, including cardiologists, neurologists, oncologists, and orthopedic surgeons. Additionally, there are several private clinics in Florence that offer specialized medical care, such as the Santa Maria Nuova Hospital and the San Giovanni di Dio Hospital," commented one expat who made the move to Florence, Italy.
