"Medical services in Venezuela have been severely impacted by the country's economic crisis. Many hospitals lack basic medical supplies and equipment, and there is a shortage of qualified medical personnel.

Despite these challenges, the Venezuelan government has made efforts to improve access to healthcare, including providing free medical services to those in need," wrote a member who made the move to Venezuela.
