Why Visit the UAE?
In recent years, the UAE has developed into the fastest growing medical hub in the world. 2016 marked a 9.5% increase in tourists flocking to Dubai seeking health services and medical treatments in the city; these numbers are only expected to grow further.
Along with offering a broad range of skilled physicians, state-of-the-art medical equipment, and top-tier medical facilities, the United Arab Emirates also works to ease visa procedures for patients coming from abroad.
