Dial 112 to call an ambulance in Slovenia

Consular Officers are not doctors and cannot provide medical advice.  The U.S. Embassy in Ljubljana, Slovenia, assumes no responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons or organizations whose names appear on this list.  The names are arranged alphabetically by city and by last name.  These physicians responded to an Embassy survey and indicated willingness to provide treatment to American citizens. 

Americans should be aware that doctors and hospitals in Slovenia usually expect immediate payment for services rendered.  The patient may then be able to obtain subsequent reimbursement from his/her insurance company.  Americans should be aware that U.S. Medicare does not provide coverage outside the U.S.  We are prohibited from recommending one doctor over another.
