This is Yambol's main polyclinic and a pretty busy place most of the time. The picture is of the main entrance. It is about 500 metres from the town centre with mostly old people limping and gypsies who seem to be here in abundance. The facilities are very dated and basic, but the staff there do a great job. Trips to this polyclinic are frequent as our Baba has to get her prescription from here monthly and Galia checked up regulary after here recent operation.
Yambol is not the prettiest City in Bulgaria, but it does have a unique character which is now in the process of being captured by camera. What you see now in Yambol will be short lived in a world of change, especially with the EU strangling the heart and soul of Bulgaria's culture with directives and uniform regulations.

Is this just like a hospital? I was a bit thrown by the name polyclinic.
ReplyDeleteMost medical needs are well met by small clinics. Actually, this is much bigger than many of what we have in the Philippines (except in the largest urban centers like Metro Manila). A lot of towns still don't have basic health care because they're too tiny.
