Friend of mine needed yellow fever shot here in Riyadh and couldn't find a public hospital that had it in stock. After researching on their behalf I found you can get it at a National Guard Hospital by way of the business section (it accepts people who do not work for the NGH).

Thus, I suggest checking out the NGH in Jeddh. good luck!

Yes it is compulsory. Try N.G.H. Don't phone, just go there and you will be seen straight away.

Good luck and have a great time in beautiful Kenya.

Sorry to sound ignorant, but where is NGH (I've just realised my Yellow Fever needs a booster shot for my visit to Tanzania at EID).

Thanks

Thanks (I was previously looking at this blog on a mobile device and hadn't seen the full name in the first post). I'll check out if there's one in Jeddah.

NGH or King Abdulaziz Medical City is located to the East of Jeddah going in the main Makkah-jeddah Highway , you will see an exist that can take you there ( it’s around 30km’s east of Jeddah). It’s before Bahra exit.

They have a Polyclinic (outpatient clinics) within Al Waha Hotel Complex in Bani Malik. Maybe you can check their first before driving all the way to the main Hospital.

Thanks. It looks like it's not too far from Al Balad. Thanks for the map link too.
