Review of King Fahd Medical City

Big hospital but treatment is average

Big hospital but treatment is average
Nothing superior
To others maybe better than private
Still not in par with international facilities
Higher Administration is ok
For doctors from Canada or USA
Advice is be careful coming lot of uncertainty they are waiting to get the required number of Saudi candidates .its not worth leaving behind years of effort and coming here
Once you go back in Canada or USA if you stay away from 2 or 3 years most malpractice insurance carriers will not cover you or hesitate to cover you , for sure for future jobs . They show no improvement in practice of medicine despite foreign doctors they want their own Saudi way ,
You will be treated like second class citizen and even you are right and Saudi is wrong he will still win . Heads you lose tails I win situation just like the Jews . Racial mentality use and throw no matter how much you do ungrateful people . Don t waste your time going here at all . And don t entertain them in USA or Canada treat them just like they treat you .
Also schools except American or British international schools which charge a whopping amount of fees 90000 riyals per years These schools ok but rest of the schools with even Americans curriculum have the wor at teachers rude mean and racists only nice to Arabs kids or good looking kids .
And don t know how to teach well from middle school .
Riyadh is fun city if you want change for a year or so only take the effort to go otherwise don t waste your time .
Also Saudi is more expensive than any other country egg tray will cost one And half times to two times more than Usa
And milk Cost also expensive . Only dates are cheaper . God knows for how long . No guarantee of work they can ask you to leave any time they have Saudi candidate and you have to leave within two or three weeks max one month or give penalty .
Just go on tourist visa have fun and come back or do Umrah and come back not worth putting your effort for these ungrateful people sincere advise
. For old timers yes it was good but not anymore
And tax free is hoax after expenses and high cost of living taxes on everything nowdays no use
If you have good job in your home country don t leave it . And then regret . This is a promise it s not the same Saudi anymore . What it was for expatriates when Allah blessed the kingdom nowdays only fair for short term but not worth the effort and money at all .
