What are medical services in Jeddah like?

Answer this Question

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

"Medical services in Jeddah, are generally of high quality, with both public and private healthcare facilities available. The city is home to several well-equipped hospitals and clinics, staffed by skilled medical professionals, including many who have trained abroad. Public hospitals provide free or low-cost healthcare services to Saudi citizens, while expatriates and visitors typically use private hospitals and clinics, which offer a wider range of services and shorter waiting times. Private healthcare can be expensive, so it is essential to have comprehensive health insurance. Pharmacies are widely available throughout the city, and many medications can be purchased over the counter. However, it is important to note that some medications may be restricted or unavailable due to local regulations. Overall, Jeddah offers a reliable and modern healthcare system, but it is essential to be prepared and have appropriate insurance coverage," remarked another expat who made the move to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

"In general I am satisfied with it, however sometimes I feel like they may not know what is wrong with me they make things up," explained one expat living in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
