How this list is ordered
What decides the order
Hospitals are sorted by these database fields, in this order. Nothing else is weighted.
We do not score outcomes, surgeon case volume or publications. Ask each hospital for surgeon-level case numbers before you decide.
- 1Centre-of-excellence flag
Hospitals marked as a centre of excellence for this specialty come first.
- 2Patient rating
A higher average rating ranks higher.
- 3Number of reviews
Breaks ties between hospitals with the same rating.
- 4Lowest listed price
For a single procedure, a lower listed starting price breaks any remaining tie.
What this list isn't
Rating ≠ outcome
A hospital ranking is a qualifying filter, not a prediction of your outcome. Within any listed hospital, your outcome is shaped by your specific surgeon's volume, the program's protocol for your indication, and your own clinical baseline. Always ask for surgeon-level data — case volume per year, conversion rate, infection rate — before committing.

Destination · United Arab Emirates
Why patients choose United Arab Emirates for hip replacement (orthopedics)
The UAE — primarily Dubai and Abu Dhabi — is the Gulf's premium medical destination, anchored by Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Khalifa Medical City, American Hospital Dubai, Mediclinic, and Saudi German Hospital Dubai. Care here is positioned around US/European care quality with Arabic-language continuity and zero language friction for patients from the wider GCC, Levant, North Africa, South Asia, and increasingly East Africa. For hip replacement, the UAE is the right call when you need same-region, same-language, JCI-credentialed care and you're prioritising service experience over price compression.
- 01
Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi runs as a full extension of the Cleveland system — same protocols, same EMR, same multidisciplinary tumor boards as the Ohio campus.
- 02
Dubai Healthcare City is a regulated medical free-zone with 160+ clinical facilities, JCI density, and dedicated medical-visa fast-tracking through DHA.
- 03
Arabic-first patient experience — consent forms, religious accommodation, halal pharmacology, and family rooms aligned to GCC patient norms.
- 04
Cancer second-opinion programs at SSMC and Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi accept imaging packages remotely and return board-reviewed opinions within 5-7 working days.
Cost note. UAE pricing reflects high real-estate, expat-staff, and import costs — the destination competes on convenience and quality of experience, not price.
How to use this list
What to look for
- Surgeon's annual case volume on your specific procedure.
- Implant brand and revision-rate data (10-year and 20-year).
- Sub-specialty match (sports medicine surgeon for sports injury, joint reconstruction for replacement).
- Pre-hab program (4-6 weeks of supervised PT before surgery measurably improves outcomes).
- Inpatient PT integration during admission.
- Outpatient PT continuity for first 12 weeks post-op.
- DVT prophylaxis protocol that extends after discharge.

Travel timing
When to travel to United Arab Emirates
Peak window: October, November, December, January, February, March, April
Avoid: June, July, August, September
Best travel is October–April when temperatures are pleasant (15–28°C). Summer (May–September) is brutal — 40°C+ daily, 50°C peaks in Abu Dhabi. Recovery is uncomfortable in summer despite excellent indoor infrastructure.
