This week on The Global Girlfriend, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most unexpected challenges of international life: going to the doctor abroad. From decoding foreign healthcare systems to deciphering prescriptions in a new language, we get real (and real funny) about our own medical misadventures.We share stories that will make you laugh, like getting diagnosed in a waiting room full of eavesdropping patients and stripping down in front of an audience of hospital staff. But we also go deep, offering honest conversations about battling tropical illnesses, advocating for your health in unfamiliar systems, and navigating the confusing (and often maddening) world of international insurance.Whether you're living abroad, planning a move, or just curious about what it's like to face a fever in a foreign country, this episode is packed with practical tips, personal tales, and a healthy blend of humor and heart.Hit play, share with a friend who’s got their passport ready, and don’t forget to subscribe for more adventures from women living international lives.
