We asked expats in Latvia if they have access to public healthcare in Latvia. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...

"Yes, as a foreigner living in Latvia, you will have access to public healthcare. Latvia has a universal healthcare system, which means that all citizens and legal residents are entitled to free healthcare services. The quality of healthcare in Latvia is generally good, with a wide range of services available. The country has a well-developed network of hospitals, clinics, and medical centers, and the majority of healthcare professionals are highly qualified," explained one expat living in Latvia.
