"Healthcare services in Ha Long Bay are relatively developed compared to other parts of the country. The city has several hospitals and clinics that provide a range of medical services. The healthcare facilities are equipped with modern medical equipment and staffed by well-trained medical professionals. However, the language barrier can be a challenge as not all medical staff speak English fluently. For serious medical conditions, patients may need to be transferred to Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City where there are more advanced healthcare facilities. It's also common for locals and tourists to use private healthcare services, which are considered to offer better quality care but at a higher cost. Pharmacies are widely available throughout the city, and most common medications can be purchased without a prescription. It's recommended for tourists to have travel insurance that covers medical expenses, as healthcare can be expensive," said a member in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam.
