Will I need to travel to see a specialist?

When we asked members in UAE if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...

"I never needed to do this, but I would have gone to City Hospital, A mediclinic hospital. They had a range of facilities available, held very high standards and that's where our daughter was born. The facility and the staff were outstanding," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Dubai, UAE.

"The cities of Dubai and Abu Dhabi are home to some of the best medical specialists in the UAE. In Dubai, the Dubai Healthcare City is a hub for medical professionals, offering a wide range of specialist services. In Abu Dhabi, the Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi is renowned for its world-class medical care and specialist services. Additionally, the Sheikh Khalifa Medical City in Abu Dhabi is a leading medical facility, offering a comprehensive range of specialist services. Other cities in the UAE, such as Sharjah, Ajman, and Ras Al Khaimah, also have a wide selection of medical specialists," commented one expat who made the move to UAE.
