Hospitals in Kenya - Nairobi.
 
While your stay in Kenya -  and while in Nairobi, there are as many hospitals as you could afford.  Some are of a budget standard while others are of a middle range to a first class services, etc.  Howeverso, you are advised not to opt for a cheaper Hospital cause the services could be quite of a low class and hence not getting the best attention of health. 
 
Whereas some hospitals have been highly recommended from their history and improved services throughout and this are the most recommended once around.  We have both private and Public hospitals in Kenya all serving similar or less purposes.  Unlike the Private Hospitals, the Public hospitals are less expensive, and especially the National Public Hospitals which keeps all specialists at each related department and are quit useful to all and especially to the locals, but could be hard to deal with due to the high demand of patient and the croud could cost your time before you get to be actually attended to.  For time conscious, we recommend the private Hospitals which are less crowded due to their slightly higher prices, but could be of much help especially when you are really in health problem. Some of the private recommended Hospitals includes:-
