When we asked members in Spain if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...

"The cities of Barcelona, Madrid, and Valencia all have a wide selection of different levels of specialists. In addition, the region of Andalusia is renowned for having some of the top medical professionals in the country. Major cities within Andalusia such as Seville and Granada are especially known as excellent locations to find highly specialized care. Other regions of Spain that are home to excellent medical professionals include the Basque Country, Galicia, and the Balearic Islands," said another expat in Spain.

"I would not return to my home country (US) for medical care. I would stay in Spain to receive the care, it’s excellent in Spain," wrote a member who made the move to Granada, Spain.
