Free Zones in the UAE - PKF International

DHCC aspires to provide excellent medical care services in selected disciplines that
are relevant to the health problems facing patients in the region. The ‘core’ of the
healthcare cluster economy is a University Medical Complex; consisting of a University
Specialty Hospital, a Post-Graduate Medical School and Nursing School, and a Life
Science Research Center. The combination of these 3 components will enable Dubai to
leapfrog to the forefront of regional medical practices, establishing a position of regional
leadership through leading edge education and research, and thereby becoming a center
of excellence in global healthcare.
DHCC will be a welcoming gateway for patients coming from abroad, visiting doctors,
conference participants, post-graduate interns and staff members. DHCC will cater
to both the medical and the wellness clusters. The Wellness Cluster is a collection of
independent businesses that are designed with the long-term health and wellness of the
patient or customer in mind. The holistic approach will focus on a customer’s well being
and enhancing the quality of life.
