Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Doha if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"Yes, there are a good number of medical specialists in Doha. People in Doha have access to a wide range of medical specialists, including general practitioners, specialists in internal medicine, cardiology, neurology, orthopedics, and more. For highly specialized medical care, people in Doha can go to the Hamad Medical Corporation, which is the largest healthcare provider in Qatar. The Hamad Medical Corporation has a number of specialized centers, such as the National Center for Cancer Care and Research, the Heart Hospital, and the Women's Wellness and Research Center. These centers provide highly specialized medical care and are staffed by experienced medical professionals," remarked another expat who made the move to Doha, Qatar.
"I happen to be based in Philippines these days dentistry is quite good and much cheaper than here in Doha," explained one expat living in Doha, Qatar.
