What are medical services in Bishkek like?

Answer this Question

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

"Medical services in Bishkek, are relatively limited compared to Western standards. Public hospitals and clinics often suffer from a lack of funding, outdated equipment, and insufficient staffing. Private clinics and hospitals are available, but they may not always offer the same level of care as those in more developed countries. The quality of medical care can vary greatly, and it is recommended that expats and travelers seek out reputable facilities and doctors. Pharmacies are widely available, but the availability of certain medications may be limited. It is advised to bring any necessary prescription medications when traveling to Bishkek. In case of serious medical emergencies, medical evacuation to a nearby country with better facilities may be necessary," said another expat in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.
