Dubai is a global health-tech and medical tourism destination

Dubai’s healthcare industry’s development has helped establish the city as a major international medical tourism destination with a stated goal to attract 500,000 medical tourists by year-end 2021. The city’s proximity and accessibility to the Middle East and GCC markets as well as Africa and Asia, its highly qualified pool of multi-disciplinary medical professionals and internationally accredited facilities and its use of innovative technologies in patient treatment are all factors fueling opportunities for Dubai’s burgeoning healthcare industry.
