Questions

How many English-speaking doctors are there in Kenya?
We list 17, in 3 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Nairobi, with 14 of the 17.
Is English unusual for doctors in Kenya?
100% of the 17 doctors we hold in Kenya are recorded as working in English. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
