Why UAE

The United Arab Emirates, sometimes simply called the Emirates, is a Federation made up of seven emirates or lands. These are Abu Dhabi (the capital), Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah, and Umm al-Quwain. It has the world’s seventh largest oil and natural gas reserves. The late Sheikh Zayed, ruler of Abu Dhabi and the first president of the UAE, oversaw the development of the UAE and steered oil revenues into healthcare, education and infrastructure. The Emirates have become a hub for tourists, from both the east and the west, with the most popular destination being Dubai. Boasting such attractions as the Burj Al Arab, the sail shaped hotel to its lavish malls – one of which has its own aquarium, to its desert safaris, Dubai has something for everyone to enjoy. The government of the UAE has continued to funnel money into the healthcare industry, resulting in one of the best healthcare services in the world. Its convenient location, for both easterners and westerners, makes the UAE an excellent choice for a medical tourism destination.
