Visit Croatia for cheap doctors, stay for beachesEuropeans find lure of high quality services, beautiful sands irresisitible
RIJEKA, Croatia - Maria Giudita Coffen did not mind driving for three hours to get her teeth fixed at half-price in Croatia.
"I am here for the first time but I've heard from friends that it's really good and it is certainly 40 percent cheaper than in Italy," she said, sitting in the modern, light-filled waiting room at DentVitalis, one of the major dental clinics in the north Adriatic city of Rijeka.
Unlike Coffen, who came from Vallisella del Cadore in northern Italy only for dental work, many west Europeans have started to combine Croatia's cheap but high quality medical services with its spectacular Adriatic coast and the crystal clear sea.
