How long does it take to get a Hamad Health Card?

I just went to Garrafa Health Center to get a Hamad Health Card and the lady told me that I would only be getting my card after 2 months? Is this correct? Last time I checked in the Qatar Living Forums, some took 3 days and some got it on the day itself. Please help me on this.

I was told by a friend, however, that the receipt can be used as the health card while the actual card isn't with me yet. Is this correct?

Thanks.

aww... guess i just wasn't lucky today!

Mohd, are you sure about that? So what the lady said was true?

Anyway, I'll try to come back and get it then. Thanks everyone for your help!

It depend on the circumstances, in the meantime there is no availability of cards ( where health card is printed) hopefully problem will be solved by 1st week of august.

may be the lady not in the mood to give you the new card, try again , better you go with someone els too and tell her that you very sick. and if anything happen to you , then you will be responsible for all.

in case if she refuse again to give u the card....
