Russian travelers choose treatment in Greece in two main areas: traditional medical care for a whole list of diseases of various etiologies and thalassotherapy in seaside hotels.
Important rules
You can choose a clinic or thalasso center using the reviews of previous patients. All medical institutions providing treatment for foreigners in Greece are certified by the Ministry of Health, and doctors have a prestigious education and work experience in the specialty.
Having contacted the specialists of the selected clinic on the website, it is enough to describe the problem and send scanned documents from the medical history in order to receive information about the proposed and necessary package of medical services within a few hours. Don't be afraid of unnecessary expenses! In Greek clinics, it is not customary to prescribe unnecessary procedures or diagnostic manipulations, and the entire course of research and treatment is discussed with the patient many times, and adjustments are made only after approval.
