What are medical services in Panajachel like?

"For myself I bring enough of my meds from Canada to hold me over. Any other first aid or illness I have been able to get what is needed, either for me or my neighbours kids who may need meds or see a Doctor. As most Pharmacies are owned by Doctors ,it is convenient and easy to receive treatment," said another expat in Panajachel, Guatemala.

"Medical services in Panajachel, are relatively basic but accessible. The town has a few small clinics and pharmacies that provide essential healthcare services, including general consultations, dental care, and minor surgeries. There are also some private doctors and specialists available for more specific needs. However, for more advanced medical treatments or emergencies, patients may need to travel to larger cities like Guatemala City or Antigua. It is essential for visitors to have travel insurance and be prepared for limited healthcare options in Panajachel," wrote a member who made the move to Panajachel, Guatemala.
