Spanish Audio Phrases Typically Used at the Doctor's Office
Medical services in Latin American countries are typically cheaper in comparison to what people are used to paying in the United States. A visit to the emergency room does not necessarily raise the cost of the service received. The government provides medical insurance to those who qualify. However, if people can afford it, they generally prefer visiting a private doctor because it's faster, and the service is much better.
