Has anyone been to Duba : Bassam Medical Center (Near Neom, Saudi Arabia)
Hey all,
I need to get my medical done to convert my visa into an iqama and have been suggested to go to Bassam Medical Center in Duba.
Just wondering if anyone else has any experience with them? Specifically if you need an appointment or just need to turn up and wait? I haven't been able to get a response from the clinic (probably because of Saudi National day) but I was wondering if it is worth heading down on a Saturday to try and get it (But obviously don't want to do the 3 hour round trip just to make an appointment, or find out they are closed.) hoping someone on here has used them and could tell me what they did.

Contractors have separate accommodation usually. Unlikely you'll be at NC2 unless your company has an arrangement. You certainly don't apply, you are allocated a space if you are eligible.

You can just turn up to the medical centre and it only takes a few minutes. They also accept cash or card - but it is important to get a Saudi mobile number first as this is how they send the results to you.

Yes, thanks. I am on the telegram group now.
I was just stuck as I arrived the day before Saudi National Day so there was no around for my first week to do anything.
I asked here in desperation as much as anything else, but I was able to find the answer.
