Getting treated for MBC in Europe?

Hi Everyone,

I'm thinking about moving abroad (I have dual citizenship) and I'm wondering what your experience has been with cancer care in places like the Netherlands, Berlin, Portugal, Italy, and Denmark. Or other European locations. Thank you and I hope everybody is having a good day. :)

Good questions, Rainbo, and does anyone know about treatment is St. Gallen, Switzerland?

My understanding is that Germany and France are way above the U.K.for instance In regard to all cancers and outlooks.

I have not heard about the other countries you mention being particularly good. Some are the poorest of EU countries.

Good luck wherever you choose.

Hello Rainbobaggins,

I'm in the UK, where treatment is free on the NHS (National Health Service). European health care is very good. Some patients choose to go private and pay for treatment. But it's up to you. Whereabouts are you thinking of moving to?
