How are healthcare services in Hanoi?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Hanoi, they replied...

"Healthcare services in Hanoi, are a mix of public and private facilities, offering various levels of care to residents and visitors. Public hospitals and clinics are the backbone of the healthcare system, providing essential services such as emergency care, general medicine, and maternity care. However, these facilities can be overcrowded and may lack modern equipment and resources, leading to long waiting times and limited access to specialized treatments. In contrast, private hospitals and clinics in Hanoi offer a higher standard of care, with modern facilities, well-trained staff, and access to advanced medical technologies. These institutions cater to both locals and expatriates, offering a wide range of services, including dental care, specialist consultations, and diagnostic services. Some of the well-known private hospitals in Hanoi are Vinmec International Hospital, Hanoi French Hospital, and Family Medical Practice. International patients seeking medical treatment in Hanoi can also find several hospitals and clinics with English-speaking staff and affiliations with international healthcare providers. These facilities often have partnerships with overseas hospitals, allowing for seamless coordination of care and access to specialized treatments not available locally. Pharmacies are widely available throughout Hanoi, with both local and international medications accessible over the counter or with a prescription. However, it is essential to ensure that the medication is genuine and not counterfeit, as counterfeit drugs are a known issue in Vietnam. Overall, healthcare services in Hanoi are improving, with increased investment in infrastructure and training of medical professionals. However, the quality of care can vary significantly between public and private facilities, and it is essential for individuals to research and choose the most appropriate healthcare provider for their needs," said a member in Hanoi, Vietnam.
