Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Austria if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"Did not have to travel outside of my area, but if I was to I would NOT need a referral," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Vienna, Austria.
"In Austria, Vienna is often considered to have the best selection of medical specialists, as it is home to some of the country's leading academic hospitals and universities offering medical education. Additionally, Salzburg, Linz, and Graz are also known for their high-quality medical specialists, due to their well-developed healthcare infrastructure, excellent medical facilities, and highly-skilled staff. Furthermore, rural areas of Austria tend to be well-serviced with smaller health centres for general medical care, with larger regional centres for specialised care," commented one expat who made the move to Austria.
