Great experience at this hospital. I had an ear infection, Dr. Mark Koba was amazing, very kind, patient, and he explained everything in detail so I felt completely at ease.

I am absolutely impressed with the level of care we received. The service was revolutionary from the very beginning – they came to pick us up directly from our place and escorted us to a private room. My son had severe stomach problems, food poisoning, and dehydration. A very competent doctor and nurse arrived promptly, examined him thoroughly, and then took us to the hospital.

There, they ran all the necessary tests, provided very detailed examinations, and kept my son overnight for observation. The facility was extremely clean, the doctor was outstanding, and the entire team showed huge professionalism.

What really stood out was how smooth the insurance process was – everything was handled transparently and efficiently. Even after we returned home, they followed up to ask how my son was feeling.

This was my first experience with a hospital in Zanzibar, and I can honestly say it is truly world-class. Many places in Europe could learn from the way this hospital provides care.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional care my son received during our holiday in Zanzibar. Your dedication and professionalism made a challenging time much easier for us.

From the friendly staff to the attentive doctors, everyone went above and beyond to ensure my son felt comfortable and well cared for. Your compassionate approach and prompt treatment made a significant difference, and we are truly thankful for your hard work and commitment.

Thank you for being there for us and providing such wonderful care. We appreciate everything you did and do!

Feel free to customize it as needed!

"Exceptional Care at Med Express Hospital"

I had an amazing experience at Med Express Hospital. From the moment I arrived, the staff treated me with such kindness and care. Everyone working there is so nice, and they made sure I felt comfortable throughout my treatment. What touched me the most was that after my treatment, they even arranged to bring me home. The owner of the hospital is a wonderful person, and his kindness really stood out. Med Express Hospital truly feels like a place of comfort and care—like a little piece of heaven on earth. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking quality medical care every service there is so nice 100%

While on vacation in Zanzibar I took ill. From the moment I was transported to MedExpress Hospital I received excellent care from all the doctors, nurses and the entire medical staff. They were thorough, attentive, and kind.
Being alone in a hospital thousands of miles away from home can be quite alarming, but the personal care I received made me feel safe and secure.
I am truly grateful for all my assigned doctors and nurses who provided excellent service.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!

Medexpress hospital is a hospital, that makes you feel home away from home.
The hospital took care of me really good. The nurses and doctors are excellent. The medical care is on a professional level and the staff took care of every problem I had during my stay. Also the receptionists were always there for me and did everything. They even came back for me with their ambulance car to the apartment right away as soon as I felt sick again. They were really and honestly the best. I felt safe and good during my stay. The hospital is beautiful, new, clean and it makes you feel relaxed also.
Also you can choose from the menu and everyday you can have breakfast, lunch, dinner.
Everyone is so nice and takes care for you.

We arrived early hours of the morning and they treated me with the best care possible from my nurse John.
Then after when having trouble with insurance the receptionist Alpha was amazing with help we received. Also then taken us back to our location safely in the early hours of the morning.

We had a wonderful experience under the circumstances. The facility is new and clean and they can do x-rays, sonars, blood tests, you name it with a fast turn around. The food was fantastic. You could order off a menu and everything was well-prepared and delivered to your room.
The staff were incredibly kind. Thank you to Dr. Ludovic who helped us from the hotel we stayed at to the facility in Paje. All the nurses, Risiki and Doreen, Dr. Rawaa, radiographer mr. Mkusi and the front desk lady ms. Imaculate. Everyone handled us with kindness and empathy.
You definitely want to end up here when you are in an emergency! Well done!

Was highly cautious contacting a medical professional out of the UK as I’ve never had to seek attentions abroad. However, I must say they were so very thorough with their investigations and did all the required tests to diagnose me as quick as possible. I felt as if I was in good hands for sure. Clean tidy clinic too! Dr Vitas & Dr Elia went above and beyond 5*

We needed a Dr for our 5 year old. We called MedExpress on Sunday morning and a Dr turned up at our villa within an hour.

He did not bring any equipment or gloves with him. He looked at the foot and declared that our son must be taken to hospital to run tests and determine a course of treatment.

The driver took us to the Kiwengwa Beach Resort, the clinic was located within the hotel.

The clinic was very modern and clean. They carried out some tests and had blood results within 30 minutes.

They called our insurance company for us and we gave permission for the claim to be raised. Confirmed the excess arrangements and didn't pay a penny. They're more than happy for direct payments from the insurance company, despite us notifying them of Zurich's notorious slowness and procrastination... They still declined when we offered to pay on site and claim back.

Overall very happy, although I felt the Dr arrived with the intention of taking our son to hospital either way.

During my stay in Kiwengwa, I unfortunately had to go to the clinic because I was feeling very unwell. Dr. Ludovic picked me up from my hotel and accompanied me to the clinic. I have never experienced such thorough and attentive medical care. Dr. Ludovic patiently listened to my complaints and then treated me with great diligence. He did everything possible to help me recover quickly and was very professional throughout. By the evening, I was already feeling much better due to his treatment. The next day, my fever was gone, my inflammation levels were almost back to normal, and I was able to leave the clinic.
Moreover, the clinic is very well equipped and new. The process with the health insurance was also trouble-free.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but *Medexpress Clinic at Karafuu* absolutely earned this one. What started as a stressful medical situation turned into a surprisingly comforting experience, thanks to *Dr. Ludovick* and his incredible team.

Not only did they take care of me with top-notch medical attention, but they also handled my *insurance* situation so smoothly, I didn’t pay a single penny in the end. I walked out not just treated, but truly *taken care of* — physically, emotionally, and financially.

To Dr. Ludovick and the team: you didn’t just heal a patient, you gave someone peace of mind far from home. That’s rare. Thank you a thousand times over.

I had an absolutely exceptional experience at *Medexpress Clinic at Karafuu*, and I want to extend my deepest gratitude to *Dr. Ludovick* and the entire team. From the moment I arrived, I received professional, compassionate care that went beyond expectations.

Not only was the medical attention thorough and reassuring, but the team also went the extra mile to assist with my *insurance claim*, ensuring that all my bills were settled directly with the insurer. I left the clinic *completely relieved, without paying a penny*, and with a heart full of gratitude.

Thank you Dr. Ludovick and Medexpress for treating me with such care and dignity. You made a stressful moment so much easier. I truly can’t thank you enough! Highly recommended.

Dr.Judith seriously saved our holiday when 3 from 4 members of my family got some intestinal infection and felt very sick. She was very profesional and nice to us , I wouldn’t expect so high standard of health care here. I thought we will be treated by some pills and sended back to the hotel room but she took all kind of checkups to find out what is the source of our problems and gave us right treatment- IV and antibiotics. After one day on clinic we felt like never been sick and can enjoy rest of the holidays. So if something similar happen to you don’t hesitate a minute and go to visit this lovely very well equipped clinic.

I had the opportunity to consult Dr Azaria during my stay. Not counting my condition, it was a great experience, if we have the slightest symptom he gives us a complete assessment, something we don't necessarily have as first intention in France!
It’s very reassuring.
Warm welcome, he gets news every day and offers us follow-up consultations, top notch!!!
Go there with your eyes closed! Thank you Doctor Azaria 🙏🏼

I really didn't expect such help. I am really surprised by the quality of the clinic in Zanzibar. You can easily perform a number of tests. Immediate help from the doctor and, most importantly, he knows what he is doing and is very polite. He answered all my questions. The clinic cooperates very well with insurance.

I received the highest quality treatment from Dr. Ludovick. The treatment was at the highest level, in a courteous manner and while explaining the treatment. When I returned to Arti, the professors who saw the stitches that Dr. Ludovick performed on me - were very impressed by his professional work. I am very grateful for the treatment.

Had a jellyfish sting and when I went in to get it sorted they knew what to do instantly, provided me with creams and antibiotics. I also had to get a tetanus booster and honestly the smoothest injection I’ve ever had in my life I didn’t feel it at all. And the doctor was extremely pleasant and friendly 10/10

During my stay in Zanzibar, I experienced some skin problems and decided to seek professional help. I had a consultation with Dr. Judith Kessy, and I'm satisfied with the care I received. Dr. Kessy demonstrated exceptional professionalism, empathy, and commitment throughout the entire process. She listened attentively to my concerns, conducted a thorough examination, and proposed a treatment plan to my specific needs. I recommend Judith Kessy as a skilled and compassionate Dr.

My partner had a fever all of sudden and was helped here very quickly. They took our concerns serious and did several tests right away. They are in very close contact with the hospital in Paje which is also very nice. Dr. Judith and nurse Lightness did a very good job and helped us over the course of 3 days. With the meds we could luckily proceed with our planned excursions, which meant it did not even had that much effect on our holiday. Test results might take some time, but I think that is quite normal and as expected.
