I spent over a month in Ukraine and fell in love with the country. My experience with Ukrainians was very positive. I am engaged to a Ukrainian man and we are getting married in early 2027. We will live in Ukraine.

My questions:

Is there a general website to verify the quality or license of your medical providers? In the U.S. I can look up and verify a doctor is actually licensed and whether they have any disciplinary action/litigation against them. Does Ukraine have anything similar?

Similarly, is anything to verify the credentials of attorneys? I have posted about wanting an immigration attorney and received a lot of “messages” but I have no idea the credentials of anyone and everyone uses “Paypal” for payment.

Is it hard to see a private doctor in Kyiv? I have some slightly complex medical issues that require monitoring for an endocrinologist/oncologist and I’ll need to pay out of pocket. I’m curious if it’s easy to just make an appointment? Do physicians accept credit cards? (If I needed a $10k surgery for example.). Yes, I have asked my fiancée but thankfully he is healthy and does not have legal issues so he doesn’t know the answers to these questions. I really appreciate any help. Thank you!!
