By combining world-class healthcare with luxury and exceptional patient support, the UAE is emerging as a leading medical tourism destination in the region, and Abu Dhabi is keeping pace with this growth, an industry expert has said.
Speaking to Aletihad, Danish Ahmed, CEO and Founder of global health travel platform Healthtrip, said the country’s healthcare sector has “undergone remarkable transformation” over a decade.
“Renowned surgeons from top medical hubs, including the US, Germany, the UK, and India are now practising in the UAE,” Ahmed said. “With a wide array of cosmetic clinics, a diverse cultural environment, and a variety for all ages, the UAE offers not only top-tier healthcare but also a comprehensive, family-friendly travel experience.”
