Al Wakra Hospital Womens Emergency

The Women's Emergency Department at Al Wakra Hospital is a dedicated unit within one of the general hospitals run by Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC), the government healthcare provider in Qatar. Located in Al Wakrah, south of Doha, it serves women from the southern part of the country who need urgent care related to pregnancy, childbirth or gynaecological conditions.

The department operates around the clock and handles urgent obstetric and gynaecological cases as well as other medical emergencies affecting women; press coverage from 2021 reported that it sees roughly 80 to 120 patients a day. It works alongside the hospital's maternity services, which include antenatal outpatient clinics, labour rooms and obstetric surgery. During expansion works in 2021 the unit was temporarily moved within the hospital, so visitors should follow on-site signage for the current entrance. General enquiries are handled through the hospital's main line, and HMC's Nesma'ak patient service can be reached on the 16060 hotline.
