Check results. For planning purposes, one customer reported results within four hours, but confirm the expected turnaround for your application.
Expect blood draw. The visit includes blood collection, and reviews differ on comfort, so mention any concerns before the sample is taken.

The Bottom Line
Al Refaa is a visa medical examination and occupational health screening centre in Al Souq Al Kabeer - Al Souq Al Kabeer|Building. You can use it for a visa medical, including blood testing and an X-ray examination, while the business also describes wider government-processing support. The strongest recurring theme is speed: customers describe clear steps, minimal waiting and visits completed in roughly 5–15 minutes.
The setting also gets consistent practical praise. Reviews call the centre clean, tidy and hygienic, and mention plenty of parking, including free shaded parking. One customer reported receiving a visa medical result within four hours, while another said results were delivered promptly and explained clearly.
That makes the centre appealing when you are trying to finish a residency-related task without turning it into an all-day errand. There is one important caution around blood collection. Two customers described rough treatment, including a bad bruise and difficulty moving a hand for several days; another felt the syringe was larger than necessary.
Most blood-test feedback was positive, but it is reasonable to raise any concerns before the sample is taken. If you need document support beyond the examination, a review also mentions MOFA attestation being completed within 24 hours, though turnaround should be confirmed for your case.
