Medical Service
Puerto Ayora
Maybe they can help you at the "Cruz Roja" (Red Cross), Av. Padre Julio Herrera y Tomás de Berlanga.
There is a hospital located on Av. Padre J. Herrera, but is not sophisticated and poorly supplied. The consultation cost is about 15US$ and they do not perform operations.
But better situated travel agencies, hotels and cruise ships can recommend a doctor of their confidence, althought the best solution in case of illness is , if possible, to return to the mainland.
