Private healthcare for people in Nairobi

Care in Dubai, our nearest city to Nairobi

Dubai is the closest of our cities to Nairobi. Appointments there are arranged with the best clinics in the city and followed by your concierge, with private GP from AED 1,300, doctor at your home or hotel from AED 1,400, executive health from AED 34,000 and full body MRI from AED 19,000.

Anyone can request an appointment today, and members are seen first. Because your record travels with you, a doctor in London picks up exactly where your doctor in Dubai stopped.

Care in London for people from Nairobi

Our clinics are on Baker Street in Marylebone and Eccleston Street in Belgravia, open from early morning to evening every day. A GP appointment is £150, a doctor to your hotel is £450, and the executive physical, a full day with one physician and every result reviewed before you leave, is £2,995.

Specialist appointments and any scans or tests are fitted around the days you are in London, so even a short stay covers everything you came for.

Travelling to London for care

Holders of a passport from Kenya are not on the list of nationalities that can apply for an electronic travel authorisation, so check on GOV.UK whether you need a Standard Visitor visa, which can cover private medical treatment [1] [2].

Health care in Nairobi

The Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council regulates the training and practice of medicine and dentistry, and registers and licenses the doctors who practise in Kenya. [3]

All residents of Kenya, citizens and foreign residents alike, are eligible to register with the Social Health Authority, which has no maximum age limit and does not check for pre-existing conditions. [4]

Nairobi is the capital city of Kenya, a country whose official languages are Kiswahili and English. [5]

Arranging a visit from Nairobi

Tell your concierge, on WhatsApp or through a request here, when you could come and what matters most to you. You will hear back within the hour, day or night in Nairobi, with appointment times to choose from before you travel.

Where a visit includes scans or blood tests, we set them early in your stay, so that your doctor can go through every result with you before you leave. Specialist appointments are arranged on the days around it, and each fee is told to you before anything is confirmed.

Time zones and travel

We arrange calls at an hour that suits you in Nairobi. After a long flight, a first appointment on the morning after you arrive usually leaves you clearer than one on the day itself, and your concierge will suggest it.

Before you travel, a checklist

A little preparation lets a doctor see the whole picture on the first day.

• Your recent results and letters, in English where you can, on your phone or on paper
• A list of your medicines and their doses, with a letter from your doctor for any that are restricted
• The question you most want answered, written down
• The dates you are in the city, so your concierge can plan tests and results around them

When you are home again

Your doctor can follow up by telephone or video wherever you are, and your plan stays in your record. If you need care where you live, your concierge can help you find it and send your letters ahead, with your consent.

Every letter is written in English, so a doctor in Nairobi can read it, and your results stay available to you after you fly home. When you next travel, your doctor begins from where you left off.
