care for all UAE nationals, visitors and resident expatiates.
Dubai also has many well-equipped public and private hospitals
offering high quality health and dental care services. |

the districts of Jumeirah, Satwa, Buhail, Rashidiya, Qusias,
Hatta, Al-Lusaili and Jebel Ali as well as at the airport
and Port Rashid. |

| Emergency medical care in Dubai is free for anyone and there
are no restrictions. |

may register for a health card for which a fee is paid. |

New arrivals should register immediately
for a health card. They may otherwise have to pay full costs
after two visits.
