Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Vietnam if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"Most friends will travel to Bangkok if they need special care ie: surgery of any kind, cancer, dermatology etc," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Da Nang, Vietnam.
"Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, is widely considered to have the most comprehensive selection of medical specialists in the country. Hanoi has numerous hospitals, clinics, and medical research centers, offering quality medical care and access to a wide range of specialists. Ho Chi Minh City is another major hub for medical specialists in Vietnam, with top healthcare institutions such as Cho Ray Hospital, Hoan My Saigon International General Hospital, and Bhinh Phuoc International Hospital. The cities of Danang and Hoi An on the central coast of the country are also renowned for their comprehensive selection of medical specialists, with top-notch hospitals such as the Vinmec International Hospital in Danang and the General Health Center of Hoi An. Additionally, many towns and provinces across the country have access to a variety of medical specialists and quality healthcare services," commented one expat who made the move to Vietnam.
