Hello,

Can someone please help me with this?! I have to apply for a heath card for public hospitals in Doha. I thought it is simply as I have seen quite a few Q&As regarding this issue on QL. However, i have no idea where i should go to apply for it!! I heard that i can get it from Hamad General Hospital. However, when i got there, I was told that I should go to certain health centre depending on where i live. They gave me the phone no. of the health centre after i told them i lived in Al Sadd. However, when I called the number, people who picked up the phone passed the phone from one to the other as no one can speak English! I searched for address for different health centres but never found any address provided for any one of the health centres. I tried going back to HGH asking for more details but never be able to find a parking spot. Can anyone please let me know where i should go? I currently live in Al sadd. Any clue is greatly appreciated!!

Tony

try Omar Bin Khattab HC... but before going there, try to call these numbers and verify with them if Al Sadd residents can apply a health card with them: 466-5648 / 466-7373

Tony08,

Either I don't know the location of Al-Sadd health center but want to help you, it might be helpful hopefully,

*1-

You're living at Al-Sadd...The Children emergency unit is situated there at the beginning of the street & you can recognize it with its high poles with red lights on it, these are the symbol of emergency units you can get some direction from there ...

*2-

A special pole with a few green lights is the symbol of the area health centers you can find those high poles if you're near the hospital.

*3-

A lots of tea stalls & shops are there in Al-Sadd, try to ask some people there about the health centre location :)
