FROM today, 1 May, it will cost an extra €2 to visit your doctor in France as the price for a standard consultation is now €25.
The price increase has come after a long period of discussions between medical associations and government, although there has been no increase for the past six years and representatives of the profession said they’ve not seen the price fixed for so long in over 30 years.
Parents with young children will also see a price rise for a child under six, with the cost increasing to €30 for a visit.
