What are medical services in Uganda like?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Uganda, they replied...
"Uganda has a public health system that provides basic medical services to its citizens. The country also has a number of private hospitals and clinics that offer more specialized care. The quality of medical services in Uganda varies depending on the location and the resources available. In general, the public health system is underfunded and understaffed, leading to long wait times and limited access to specialized care. However, the country is making efforts to improve the quality of medical services, including increasing access to essential medicines and investing in training for healthcare workers," remarked another expat in Uganda.
