What are medical services in Abidjan like?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Abidjan, they replied...

"Medical services in Abidjan, are a mix of public and private healthcare facilities. The city has several hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies, but the quality of care can vary significantly. Public hospitals are often overcrowded and under-resourced, with limited access to advanced medical equipment and specialized care. Private clinics and hospitals generally offer better quality care, but they can be expensive and may require upfront payment. Medical staff in Abidjan may have limited English proficiency, and it is advisable for foreigners to seek care at facilities that cater to expatriates. It is also recommended to have comprehensive medical insurance and consider medical evacuation coverage, as some complex medical cases may require treatment outside of the country," said a member in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
