Decent medical care, great dental. Medevac location is London if you need surgery. - Sep 2023


No special health concerns. You can drink the water. There are two or three expat-quality clinics that can handle typical health issues. For serious stuff you'll want to go home. - Apr 2019


Medical care is post-Soviet... - Feb 2014


Thankfully I have not had to experience it firsthand, but Moldovan medical care is notoriously horrid. People get evacuated for anything other than a cold or minor injury. - Aug 2011


There are no specific health concerns. The quality of the water is suspect, but better than many places. The quality of medical is quite low, but it is improving. You do not want to have surgery here. Dental care, on the other hand, is inexpensive and of high quality. - May 2010
