The webinar in progress
Dubai’s successful reopening to tourists indicated the emirate’s determination to resume its efforts to gain a strong leadership in the global health tourism industry.
Speaking at a webinar organised by the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing in Dubai for travel agents and tour operators from West Africa, Mohamed Al Mheiri, Director of the Health Tourism Department of DHA, urged health tourists to come to Dubai, saying it is a safe destination where they can seek health and wellness services.
Al Mheiri said: “We will continue to provide health visitors with the best healthcare solutions that meet their expectations. These include the free second medical opinion service available on DXH.ae, an online portal dedicated to health tourists who need an expert’s view of their condition. They can be assured that their case gets reviewed and their diagnosis verified. The website can also suggest appropriate and personalised treatment plans, as well as alternative methods provided by medical professionals in Dubai.”
