"Hospitals are everywhere, clinics as well. Less than 30 minutes to any hospital unless you are out in the desert. MedClinic is a big hospital provider in the region.

To call for an ambulance, you can dial the emergency number, which is 998 or 999. The operators are trained to handle emergency situations and will dispatch the necessary assistance promptly. It is important to provide clear and accurate information about your location and the nature of the emergency to ensure a quick response," explained one expat who made the move to Abu Dhabi, the UAE.
