Doctors regularly update their professional skills in the Netherlands, Belgium, England, Sweden, and the USA. Doctors and medical personnel of most Portuguese clinics located in major cities (Lisbon, Porto, Faro, Amadora, Braga, Setúbal) speak English, Portuguese, French, German, Swedish, Russian, and Ukrainian languages. Overseas patients receive guaranteed individual approach in treatment as well as care and attention on the part of medical personnel.
