The Dubai Healthcare City was founded in 2002 as a Free Zone focused on developing the health and wellness infrastructure of the UAE. It was built to attract and promote quality healthcare and clinical and wellness services and encourage more integrated and innovative medical education and research. Today, the Free Zone is home to more than 160 clinical entities including hospitals, outpatient medical centers and diagnostic laboratories across more than 150 specialties.
Its unique environment, that offers unprecedented opportunities for healthcare ventures and agencies, has helped DHC build upon its ingrained infrastructural talents as the world's largest healthcare Free Zone and elevate itself into one of the premier health and wellness destinations in the region.
