Rosemary (American from New Mexico) talks to Kalie from ExpatsEverywhere about how she arrived in Portugal and quickly realized that she needed a little assistance navigating the healthcare system in Portugal.
Portugal has one of the top healthcare systems in Europe but it is different to what she's used to so she details what she did in hopes that it helps you. You might be able to avoid some of her mistakes by following her advice throughout.
She lets you know how she prepared for her move from a medical perspective as well as tells her story of the first time she met with her doctor in Portugal. There's also a service she used that she wished she had started using a month or two before her move. Like most people though, the visa process and those other bits of moving took front and center in her mind as she and her husband, Stu, planned their move in mid-2021.
