This posted on DR1. Good news for everybody.
The new hospital on the main road in Sosua (Centro Medico Cabarete) just west of and across the street from the Mulata road is now open. It actually opened on Thursday. All services are being offered, but some are just getting started. There is a 24 hour physician staffed Emergency Room. They are in the process of setting up relationships with all the major DR insurances as well as many forgien ones.
It will be a big plus for the medical care here on the north coast.

i was there yesterday. They had open three days ago and had already performed a couple of surgeries (one of which was scheduled cosmetic surgery). Talked to the doctors and got a tour of the place; very nice, modern, clean, etc. Dr. Spitali (neuro surgeon and owner) and his wife (administrator) speak English. My husband consulted with a few other doctors who didn't speak English. They have very good rates for locals and expats . We paid RD$500 for a short consultation. They're getting a state-of-the-art emergency care ambulance soon.
