"As a foreigner living in Paros, you will have access to public healthcare if you are a legal resident and have registered with the Greek social security system. Public healthcare in Greece is generally of good quality, with well-trained medical professionals and modern facilities. However, the system may face challenges such as long waiting times, understaffed hospitals, and limited resources in rural areas. It is advisable to also have private health insurance to supplement the public healthcare system and ensure access to a wider range of services and shorter waiting times," explained one expat living in Paros, Greece.
