There are plenty of good doctors in Crete. Many have
done some of their training abroad and will speak one or more foreign
languages fluently. Most of the doctors are specialists, the concept
of a general practitioner being quite new here.
You will need to pay the doctor for a visit (in general it is pretty reasonable)
and arrange for a refund through your health insurance by yourself if you
are entitled to it.
There are also many good dentists. One thing worth noting: dental technicians are excellent and cheaper than in Northern Europe. If you are ever in need of major dental work, it is worth considering taking a holiday in Crete and having the work done here. You'll have a holiday and still save on what you would have spent in your country!
