"In Saudi Arabia, healthcare services are generally of very high quality. The country has a well-developed healthcare system which is government financed and supported. Public healthcare is provided free of charge at government hospitals and clinics. Private healthcare is also available and is subsidized in part by the government. There is a wide range of specialized medical services available within the country and a good selection of healthcare professionals. In addition, the country has signed bilateral agreements with many western countries in order to provide access to advanced medical technology," commented one expat who made the move to Saudi Arabia.
