yes you can go to the westbay medical centre, they are very good, ive been there before with visiting family when they have taken ill. You will pay 30-40 qr to see the doctor, and any meds are usually way cheaper than the U.k they may ask to see your passport but this is only so they can get the correct spelling of your name for their records! get well soon xx

You can go to any hospital. Surely you have travel insurance?

irishgirl so far and to my knowledge you can not go to the health centers if you do not have health card.

You can double check with hamad authorities
