Gynecologists see patients only during office hours: 92.6% open before 09:00, 29.6% work on Sunday

Our count as of September 3, 2026

A patient looks for a gynecologist after work or on a weekend, and the office is closed at that time. We counted the schedules of 1186 gynecology offices in Kazakhstan with a readable schedule. 1098 of them, 92.6%, open before 09:00. 113, or 9.5%, work after 21:00. 351, or 29.6%, are open on Sunday. Gynecology is one of the most "office-hours" niches: the office is open when the patient's own office is open, not when she actually needs to book

Closing hour

Half of the offices close before 19:00

More offices close at 18:00 than at any other hour in this count. A woman who works until six herself can reach the office only by booking a morning or lunchtime slot

If an office is closed by six, in Almaty there is the KAZMED medical center, our partner on ooon.ai. It is in the Aksay-5 microdistrict, building 12A, and open Monday to Friday until 22:00. A first visit to a gynecologist costs 12,600 ₸, a repeat visit 9,450 ₸. The exact appointment time can only be learned when you book, because the listing does not show it

Where bookings are lost

In gynecology a request is rarely put off. A person looks for an appointment when something worries her, and writes to several offices at once

Search hours and appointment hours do not match. Messages arrive in the evening and on weekends, exactly when a third of the offices are open. In the morning the administrator answers everyone, but the choice has already gone to whoever answered first

The second place of loss is pregnancy. Care stretches over a year of visits, so the first request is worth much more than one appointment

What you can count yourself

Three numbers from the office's correspondence for the last three months:

  1. How many requests arrived after 18:00 and on weekends
  2. How many hours passed before the first reply to each
  3. How many of them led to an appointment

The third number is the price of evening silence

What offices do

Appointment hours have nowhere to move: they depend on the doctor's schedule. The reply time is what can move, because it does not depend on the appointment schedule. The ways differ: an administrator with a phone for the evening, doctor's replies between appointments, ooon.ai on incoming messages. Start by measuring the three numbers above

How we counted

The source is the open listings of gynecology offices and clinics in Kazakhstan with a parsed schedule and the status "active". The niche was determined by the listing's category, selected by category name regardless of letter case. The city table keeps cities with 20 or more offices. Counted on September 3, 2026

Numbers in this article come from our own database of public directories in Kazakhstan, counted on September 3, 2026. We count them ourselves and never take them from other reports
