"Healthcare services in Al Wajh are generally of high quality, with the government investing heavily in the health sector. The city has several public and private hospitals and clinics that offer a wide range of medical services. These facilities are equipped with modern medical equipment and are staffed by well-trained medical professionals, many of whom have been trained overseas. The Saudi government provides free healthcare services to all Saudi citizens, and expatriates also have access to these services at a subsidized cost. In addition to hospitals and clinics, there are also numerous pharmacies throughout the city where residents can purchase prescription and over-the-counter medications. The healthcare system in Al Wajh is also supported by a network of ambulances and other emergency services. Despite these strengths, the healthcare system in Al Wajh faces challenges, including long wait times for certain procedures and a shortage of certain specialists," remarked another expat who made the move to Al Wajh, Saudi Arabia.
