What are medical services in San Juan del Sur like?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in San Juan del Sur, they replied...

"Medical services in San Juan del Sur, are relatively limited compared to more developed countries. The town has a small public health clinic, known as a Centro de Salud, which provides basic medical care and emergency services. However, the clinic may not have all the necessary equipment or medications, and the staff may not be fluent in English. For more specialized treatments or serious medical emergencies, patients may need to travel to larger cities like Rivas or Managua, where there are better-equipped hospitals and private clinics. It is also important to note that medical facilities in Nicaragua may not meet the same standards as those in more developed countries, so travelers are advised to have comprehensive travel insurance that includes medical evacuation coverage," remarked another expat who made the move to San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua.
