Health care in Yemen

Hello everyone,

One among the various issue that many expatriates usually raise is Health Care. So, I think it would be very interesting and helpful to start a topic about Health.

   > So, can you please list some of the private clinics & public hospitals in Yemen?

   > What about dental care? May be some tips about the costs?

   > Some addresses of Eye care clinic, opticians will also be welcomed!

   > Some addresses of pharmacies around Yemen will also be useful.

Do not hesitate, to add more related items to the list.

Thanks in advance for your participation!

Thank you alnakhla! :)

Maybe you could give us some tips/info/ advise on this topic on the forum.

Thank you very much for sharing.

Well, you have both private and public hospitals. The most important is the doctor him- or herself, though. And you could find a good (or not-so-good) one in both places. Public hospitals are more crowded. They're cheaper, too.

You should simply ask around in your neighborhood and ask which places or doctors have a good reputation.

Pharmacies are everywhere, and if you have a small health complaint for which you don't feel like visiting a doctor, many of them can assist you, too, in giving advice.
