Private Healthcare in Cyprus

Cyprus has a well-developed private healthcare system available on a paid basis. Every region has private hospitals, medical centers, polyclinics, clinics, and doctor's offices.

Private hospitals, centers, and polyclinics offer a variety of specialties, as well as general medicine and surgery. Some have their own ambulance services, emergency departments, and laboratories.

Additionally, you can find facilities specializing in one or two fields, such as pediatrics, ophthalmology, gynecology, and reproductive medicine.

Private Clinics and GeSY

The state insurance system includes not only municipal clinics but also some private doctor's offices, hospitals, centers, clinics, polyclinics, and other facilities.
