Medical Assistance
Medical services are excellent in Jordan's larger cities and towns. Most doctors are bilingual in Arabic and English, since medical science is taught in English. The larger Hotels have a doctor on call, and embassies will also suggest a doctor or hospital.
Amman has many large, well equipped hospitals, a few of which are listed here; in other cities, the hotel concierge or a taxi driver will be able to direct you to a doctor or hospital.
