As a foreigner living in Kennedy Town, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?

"Yes, as a foreigner living in Kennedy Town, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Hong Kong is highly developed and is accessible to all residents, including foreigners. It is heavily subsidized by the government, making it affordable for everyone. The system is made up of a network of clinics and hospitals that provide a wide range of medical services. The quality of care in public hospitals is generally high, with well-trained medical staff and modern facilities. However, it's worth noting that public hospitals can be quite crowded and waiting times can be long, especially for non-emergency services. Communication in English can sometimes be a challenge in public hospitals, as most of the staff are more comfortable speaking Cantonese. However, there are usually staff members who can speak English to assist. In addition to public healthcare, there is also a thriving private healthcare sector in Hong Kong. Private hospitals and clinics generally offer a higher level of comfort and shorter waiting times, but at a much higher cost. Many expatriates and wealthier locals choose to use private healthcare for these reasons. Overall, while the public healthcare system in Hong Kong has its challenges, it provides a reliable and affordable option for healthcare for foreigners living in the city," remarked another expat who made the move to Kennedy Town, Hong Kong.
