Hello,
I have received a job offer by MOH as general surgeon in Hafer al Batin, north east of KSA, near the Iraqi and koweiti boarder.. They offer me a salary of 35000KSA. Is this enough regarding the risk and the position of consultant in GS.. Plus, I plan to bring my little family with me and to rent a house in Khubar, 500 km fom Hafer al Batin, where there is a French school. Do you think I can negotiate the house and school payment in my contract ?
Thanks for your response.

Alright , 35,000 SR for General Surgeon ?
Look , consultants get 50,000 SR !

I know this hospital as I am from King Khalid Military City ! A base for the Royal Saudi Air Force and Military !
This hospital is located 10-15 kms short of Hafr Al Batin !

It's a newly built hospital !
Regarding keeping your family in Khobar , well it will be hard for you to travel back and forth !
You either can taking the accommodation offered by MOH or get 3 months pay to rent outside !

MOH salaries are always low , if you were with the Armed Forces Hospital which comes under Ministry of Defense , am sure your salary would be higher !

Example a GP earns 9000 SR in Armed Forces Hospital , whereas in MOH , 5000 SR !
