Treatment in France

For most of us, France is associated with tourism, fashion and style, but not with medical care.

Nowadays, France willingly accepts patients from all over the world for treatment, providing medical services of the highest level!

Medical service in France, regardless of the region, is one of the best in Europe. Medicine is developing at a very fast pace, both in practical and scientific direction. Many specialists combine the work of a practical doctor and a scientist: they write scientific papers, take part in international conferences and seminars. Today we can rightfully say that French medicine is a medicine of innovations.

What clinics accept patients?

In France, as in most countries, there are both public clinics (including university clinics) and private clinics. Private clinics are usually specialized, and state clinics are large multidisciplinary clinics. The level of medical care is about the same no matter which clinic you go to.

Facilities, food and costs

Living conditions and food in both private and public clinics are excellent and meet high European standards. Some private clinics offer truly luxurious apartments! In the ratings of European clinics, medical institutions of France occupy leading positions, but the rates for examination and treatment in some cases are significantly lower than in such countries as Germany and Austria.
