Peripheral Clinics
The peripheral clinics operate as small units of first rate health care, to provide services to all areas that are far from the basic medical centre of the island or the province in general.
They are staffed by doctors of countryside obligatory service (rural doctors), while they provide services including tests, prescriptions and references to specialists.
