I
could
never
recommend
this
hospital,
especially
for
those
who
are
not
medically
fluent
is
Spanish,
not
for
surgeries
or
urgent
care.
The
charge
2-4x
what
you'd
pay
in
London,
Paris
or
even
in
the
US.
The
ER
requires
a
1000
euro
deposit
to
be
seen,
and
it
costs
about
750
for
a
quick
ER
consultation
and
it
is
rare
(in
my
family's
case)
that
anyone
from
nurses
to
doctors
speak
English
(though
they
bill
themselves
as
an
International
hospital
targeting
non-locals
at
those
prices).
Their
equipment
is
subpar
(for
MRIs
they
do
not
have
a
3T
MRI,
only
an
outdated
1.5).
Also,
The
vascular
doctor
Dr.
Cesar
Garcia-Madrid
quoted
me
9900
euros
for
a
one
hour
surgery
(approx),
a
common
simple
surgery,
but
wanted
to
do
it
in
the
evening,
forcing
an
overnight
stay
in
the
hospital.
I
went
to
London,
to
the
highest
rated
surgeon
in
the
UK
and
the
quote
was
3400
pounds
(all
in).
I
also
had
a
consult
with
a
German
surgeon
consult
and
it
was
2500
euros,
the
exact
same
procedure.
He
also
said
that
none
of
the
nurses
or
staff
that
would
be
attending
to
me
in
my
unnecessary
overnight
stay,
none
would
speak
English.
In
addition,
after
writing
his
email
3-4
times
with
google
translate
to
make
the
initial
appointment
I
finally
received
a
response
and
his
receptionist
emailed
that
'he
was
fluent
in
English'.
I
arrive
and
pay
the
250
euro
consult
fee,
and
guess
what.
First
thing
he
says,
my
English
very
bad.
It
was.
It
was
hard
to
communicate
at
all,
and
he
didn't
run
all
the
tests
the
other
doctors
did
on
my
other
consultations.
It
feels
(for
me)
subpar
for
4x
the
amount
anywhere
else
in
Europe.
I
really
wish
people
would
stop
promoting
this
outdated
medical
center
as
the
best,
just
because
the
building
is
historic
and
beautiful.
Perhaps
their
service
should
be
as
good
as
the
landscaping.
