The new purpose-built medical complex is designed by Dubai-based Design and Architecture Bureau (DAR). It covers 5,800 square metres across two basement levels and five floors. The complex will feature adaptable spaces for:

• Surgical facilities

Its shell-and-core design, optimised layouts, and smart parking integration are future-focused - they ensure long-term flexibility to meet the evolving needs of both healthcare providers and patients.

DHCA will also provide multi-storey car parks equipped with electric vehicle charging stations, Salik-integrated smart parking and full accessibility features.

Allae Almanini, Chief Operating Officer at Dubai Healthcare City Authority, added,“Our priority is to deliver infrastructure that enables growth and creates confidence for healthcare providers and investors. These projects will enhance accessibility, sustainability, and efficiency across the community, ensuring that DHCC remains the most attractive healthcare investment destination in the region.”
