"Medical services in Ho Chi Minh City, are a mix of public and private healthcare facilities. Public hospitals are often crowded and may have outdated equipment, while private hospitals and clinics offer higher quality care with modern facilities and English-speaking staff. International hospitals are also available, providing a range of specialized services and treatments. Pharmacies are widely accessible throughout the city, but it is recommended to bring any necessary prescription medications from home. It is important for visitors to have comprehensive travel insurance that covers medical expenses, as the cost of treatment at private facilities can be high," remarked another expat in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
