If you have a serious medical problem, you might consider leaving the country. Medical standards are uneven—sometimes hard to gauge; the art of diagnoses sometimes leaves something to be desired. There are several up-and-coming private facilities though, and some good dental clinics catering to foreigners.
Tallinn Central Hospital: (C-3) Ravi 18, tel. 602-7015.
