During the relocation and settling in period, as women, we are so preoccupied that we tend to put health issues on hold for a while. We associate a life in Spain with instant vitality and wellbeing. However, we mustn’t take good health for granted and should still look after our body parts.
Unlike in the UK, in Spain it is up to the individual to keep a check on your body and you must use your own initiative to arrange breast screenings and smear tests. Anything niggling should not be left before it’s too late and your health should always be a priority despite this busy period in your life. In Spain you can pursue private health care which tends to be cheaper than in the UK see Hamilton Insurance for further information or follow the state system. Below is a list of Gynaecologists:
