Hello, i am from Romania, currently living in the UK. Regarding the Romanian heath system, i can tell you it is a lot better than in many other EU countries. May be the buildings do not look like those in the privat sector but the doctors are very well prepared. Comparing to the UK, they have nice buildings but not well presented doctors. It happent to me to go to the doctor and the doctor had to check online in front of me what is my problem. It is not acceptable in Romania. Also, Bucharest is not the most expensive city, Cluj is the most expensive, actually. Take care, and thank you for your podcast.

What are you talking about ?? Romanian health system is still bad! My mother in law broke her arm and she had to get an operation. She had to give the doctor "tips money" or whatever it's called in english so the doctor would take her serious and do the operation next day. After the operation again my mother in law had to give extra money to the nurses so they could help her. If you dont give extra money to the nurses no one looks at you. Some nurses are also rude and talks bad to you and insults you. Let's not even talk about the awful food you get if you stay days in the hospital. I was in Bucharest with my mother in law this year for an glaucoma operation in her eyes. I slept 3 days on 2 chairs, the food was little, old and tasteless. I'm not even allowed to go outside the hospital to buy something else to eat.

Thank you for this interview. Thank you for minimizing the prejudism about Romania. In comparison, Romania does not deal with influx of non abiding people living in their country and therefore it is safer and more authentic in my opinion. Thank you ladies!

Maybe others are watching this clip and probably this helps the Italian lady in the clip, so let me clarify - You first get a family doctor - that's free. He's job is to diagnose very simple stuff, do vaccines, help with healthcare paperwork and THE MOST IMPORTANT - to send you to whatever specialist you need (that's called a Doctor's Note). The health system in Romania is provided in full and based on your insurance by STATE hospitals, not private hospitals. The disadvantage with State hospitals is that it can be a long waiting time and the hospitals are not so modern, but that's where all the best doctors are. The private hospitals look amazing, BUT in case of an emergency or complicated surgery or anything more complicated THEY WILL SEND YOU TO A STATE HOSPITAL!!! The way the lady describes it is like it's just a family doctor and private hospitals. That's not true. She skips/ignores/doesn't mention at all the state hospitals and specialist. The family doctor is like an operator, he's the one directing you to a specialist based on your condition. It's your choice to choose a private vs a state specialist. What she also doesn't mention is that waiting times in Romania for health issues is a lot shorter than in most developed countries in Europe. I have Romanian friends that flew back home from Sweden because they had a dental issue and the appointment was for 6 weeks into the future in Sweden to get checked out by a dentist. In Romania you either get it done today or tomorrow. We don't have the best healthcare system but it's not the worst either but there are also clear advantages over other countries even very well developed ones.

Also for future reference to other readers: Example 1) I was cleaning rust off a fence with an angle grinder and metal shard flew into my eye, I got in the car, wife drove me to "Lahovari" Emergency Room (state hospital for Eye issues), got fixed in an hour, removed the shard, cleaned the eye, patched me up, gave me some pills, and off you go. Zero Euro/Lei etc. Example 2) Woke up in the middle of the night with kidney stone pain, drove right to "Burghele" Emergency Room (state hospital for kidney issues). Got a room, a bed, some pills, and next morning "ping" - i heard the stone hitting the toilet bowl when peeing. Zero Euro/Lei. Example 3) We wanted some investigations for our teenage daughter, Ultrasound and stuff - we opted for Regina Maria - because that's what they do best - treat you like a king, see you right away and investigate the hell out of you :). But if you had some real issues (like I had) then you go to State Hospitals, even Regina Maria hospital will send you to a state hospital based on what they find.

Romanian health system is very complicated and inefficient . The family doctors can’t do much, they can’t even start a diabetic on Metformin. They have to send you a specialist for any medications, even an antidepressant can only be prescribed by a psychiatrist,and most of them don’t do refills over the phone. I am Romanian, I worked in healthcare for 11 years in Bucharest, and I moved to Canada 23 years ago, where I also work in healthcare. Romania is 100 years behind compared to Canada. You don’t have to wait to be seen in Romania, but the quality of care is horrific. This is the main reason why I don’t want to return, as I am getting older.

@lecsu131 Ай бұрын

@@Magda-ey9yf Why would a family doctor prescribe anti depressants? Because that's the way in US and Canada? You don't have to be seen by a specialist (most probably you even can't be seen because there's a cue around the block and waiting times horrendous) and the non-specialist family doctor prescribes everything and that's how there's a crisis of opioids and antidepressants that even kids can get their hands on? And that's a good thing in your medical opinion? Really? :).... Why would I want refills over the phone? You are talking about the actual systemic issues in Canada (almost no access to doctors when you need it) and the dumb workarounds they came up with to mitigate that - phone refills, non-specialist care, etc. And you say Romania is 100 years behind? :)...you are funny.

Romanians who moved in Italy and in many other countries in Europe 15-20 years ago, most of them have houses in Romania, and they actually didn't emigrated like the officials authorities are saying. They worked and builded or rebuilded their houses and they gathered money from their work, so they can come home with money and experience to make a better life in Romania. Living costs is higher in Europe, rents are higher, in Romania too, but they have their own house and can build again a good life home.

And,by comparison,Romania is one of the most beautiful countries in the world.We have,unfortunately,a bad political class,without international integrity and personality,corrupted by western countries but the romanians are really good people,empatic and social characters.Our logistics and infrastructure it's an work in progress but,still,you can enjoy the country's beauty.
