Researching Playa del Carmen - Part II - Medical and Dental Services, Internet Access and Phone Service, and Transportation

4)     Medical and Dental

During our research and decision to relocate to Playa del Carmen, Mexico we had planned on seeing our current health care provider and dentist once a year, when we returned to the States during the summer months.  But in reality, you never know when the need will arise for health care or dental services.  So now the challenge was to identify a medical doctor, hospital (in the event of an emergency) and a dentist.  These providers would have to be able to speak English (since we can't speak a word of Spanish) and come highly recommended by the expat community.
