What are medical services in Puerto Penasco like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Puerto Penasco, they replied...
"Puerto Penasco offers a range of medical services depending on patient needs. In the city, there are general practitioners, specialists, and hospitals offering primary care, specialized medicine, and complex surgeries. Additionally, tourists or travelers will be able to find pharmacies offering both prescription and over-the-counter medications. The medical services in Puerto Penasco are generally considered to be very high quality and reliable, and some medical staff there speak English," explained one expat living in Puerto Penasco, Mexico.
"Our town does not have a major hospital that I would feel comfortable going to for open heart surgery for example. That is the only issue with medical care here. Anything less than major surgery can be done here. Major surgery would require going to a large metro area either 3.5 hours away or 5 hours away in the other direction. We would just go back to Phoenix because it is 3.5 hours away. That is what our expat friends do," said another expat in Puerto Penasco, Mexico.
