There are a number of doctors, dentists, optometrists and even chiropractors on the island. In general, the practitioners are caring and reasonably priced. For example, I had a fish hook stuck in my arm. I went to a Doctor practicing out of the Pharmacia in Oak Ridge. She saw me within 5 minutes of walking in, removed the hook, cleaned the wound and charged $10. USD.
