Modeled preview

Verify the doctor — before you book

Sourced
Official registry
The Ministry of Health licenses physicians — the Medical Service Administration issues the medical practice licence for modern medicine, with provincial Departments of Health licensing locally. Under the 2023 Law on Medical Examination and Treatment, new practice licences (Giấy phép hành nghề) are valid five years. · No public English per-doctor licence-search portal exists; licences are held in the Ministry of Health's national health database. Ask the hospital for the doctor's practice-licence number and specialty and have it confirmed with the treating hospital or the provincial Department of Health; for hospital quality, look for JCI accreditation (e.g. Vinmec Times City).

Hospitals name your doctor when they quote — run that name through the registry. We cite the official body only, never rank individuals.

Doctors are hospital attributes in our registry — never ranked or reviewed as individuals. Vet the person, choose through the hospital.
