medical services, (mostly in Hyannis) or even Sandwich, Bourne, Falmouth, (closer to off-Cape facilities).

But throughout the entire Cape, from Memorial Day weekend to September, one needs to plan travel and shopping, carefully timing your travel to avoid "the bridges" ( off-Cape) on Sunday afternoon. It's always busy traffic-wise in summer all over the Cape, so think strategically about those issues, too.
