Healthcare & Wellbeing

Both private and public healthcare services are available in the UAE. General standards are high, with English speaking staff and internationally trained staff in most facilities but, as in most countries, private healthcare is seen as preferable as you are likely to experience shorter waiting times and more comfortable facilities. If it's a pampering session that you're after then there are all sorts of spa treatments available to soothe your mind, body and soul.
