Healthcare in Dubai is considered one of the best in the region. It operates both public and private clinics, equipped with modern equipment and highly qualified personnel.

Health insurance is mandatory for all residents, and many employers provide policies for their employees. Tourists can also receive medical care, but it is recommended to have international health insurance.
