Much like emergency departments, our home doctors ask only the necessary questions to ensure the patient is treated immediately. These include:

• The full name and date of birth of the patient.
• The photo ID (Emirates ID or Passport)
• Relevant contact, email address and phone number.
• The symptoms the patient is experiencing.

Our Doctors carry all assessment equipment including ECG Machine, Nebulizer, Pulse Oximeter and essential injections and a wide range of medications to commence treatment immediately such as antibiotics, analgesics, gastrointestinal, antihistamines and other medications. Our doctors will also send a medical report to you the following day detailing the condition and treatment that you have been given. We care about your health, which is why we will also arrange to provide patients with the prescribed medication and diagnostics at home.

Yes. We schedule the same physician for each visit unless the physician is out of town and you need to be seen on an urgent basis. In that case, we will arrange for you to be seen by another of our outstanding physicians, who will have the benefit of your complete medical record at his or her fingertips.

Dubai is one of the hubs in medicine and scientific study in the MENA region. It has some of the best healthcare providers in the UAE and the most innovative healthcare business models to rival any in the world in terms of patient experience and comfort. If you’ve come from a country like the UK with a national health service, Dubai’s system can be confusing at first. Here you don’t need to register with a specific GP; you can make an appointment at any clinic in the city, so you can try a few to find the doctor you are most comfortable with. We recommend that you opt for the comfortable option provided by First Response Healthcare to call the doctor at your Hotel Room or to your home in Dubai.

Following are the best hospitals in Dubai categorized as Public Healthcare and Private Healthcare Dubai has one of the best public health systems in the world, offering a high standard of medical care in state-of-the art facilities. It is run by the Dubai Health Authority (DHA), which oversees both public and private healthcare, and replaces the Department of Health and Medical Services (DOHMS). The Emirate has four major government hospitals: Dubai Hospital, Rashid Hospital, Latifa Women and Children Hospital and Hatta Hospital Each has an emergency department, and offers both inpatient and outpatient services. English is commonly spoken by staff.

Although the quality of care in public hospitals and medical centers is very good, many expats use private healthcare. If you have health insurance, you can choose from a wide network of facilities. As per regulations and strong government initiative all hospitals in Dubai have international accreditations mostly with Joint Commission International (JCI).

Public hospitals provide free emergency treatment to everyone. If you don’t have a health card, they will issue you with a provisional one when you arrive at the emergency department. Since the introduction of compulsory health insurance for all residents, all public hospitals accept health insurance cards, and bill insurance companies for emergency services. Most medical emergencies are dealt with at Rashid Hospital. Private facilities also provide emergency treatment, but this can be quite expensive without comprehensive health insurance. For emergencies you should call the Dubai Emergencies Helpline Number 999 and an ambulance from Dubai Corporation of Ambulance Services will reach you.
