Hey guys,
Tried doing a search here but couldn't find what I was looking for.
Just wondering if anyone here knows of any English speaking Taiwanese or foreign doctors in Taipei, or if not, any websites I could visit, or any other information that might help me.
Also, how are medical costs for someone who isn't a part of the national health insurance (i.e. paying in cash)?
Thanks in advance! |

Just about any doctor is able to speak at least rudimentary English. Most journals etc are in English and it is a requirement for their job.
Costs for a doctor visit without NHI isn't especially high. I think it's only something like double or triple the normal user fee. |
