Russian-speaking doctors, city by city

Where these came from

These come from 9 different sources, led by mediclinic.ae (10), a German diplomatic mission (9) and the UK Foreign Office's travel advice (4). A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, which is why Russian turns up in 8 countries rather than only where Russian is spoken.

16 of the 31 sit on an official list; the rest rest on the provider saying so or on a directory listing, which is a weaker claim and is labelled as such on each card.

Where we have nothing

We list doctors in 180 further cities with no Russian speaker recorded, among them Barcelona (34), Rome (29), Madrid (28) and Paris (27). That is a gap in what has been published, not proof that nobody there works in Russian.

Questions

How many Russian-speaking doctors does this page list?

31, in 10 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source.

Where are most of them?

Dubai with 10, Vilnius with 9 and Riga with 3. Together that is 71% of the page.

Does a listing mean the doctor speaks Russian personally?

Not always. Some sources name a practice whose staff include a Russian speaker rather than the named person, and each card quotes the wording its source used.

All 190 cities where we list doctors, whatever the language.
