New Dubai Neuro-Spinal Hospital Opens

The new Neuro-spinal hospital in Dubai opens

The new neuro spinal hospital has now opened in Dubai Science Park offering a larger facility for its highly specialised treatments of the brain, nervous system and skeletal systems to patients in the Middle East and beyond.


The original Dubai Neuro Spinal Hospital (NSH) was instituted in 2002 as the first hospital in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) specialising exclusively in the management of spinal, neurosurgical, neurological and orthopaedic conditions. It offered advanced diagnostic capabilities, surgical treatments, an advanced cancer treatment centre and neuro-rehabilitation space.


For over a decade, it established itself internationally as a renowned centre of excellence and referral for complex Neurosurgical, Spinal, Orthopaedics treatments from the UAE and across the MENA region. It delivered superior clinical outcomes and became the destination of choice for local and international patients seeking expert and compassionate care. Its success prompted its expansion to a new level. An investment of AED 700 Million secured the construction of its new 120 bed hospital in the Dubai Science Park, designed by and for patients.


The hospital combines a healing environment with expertise from around the world and the latest diagnostic and treatment technologies. This includes the first Cyber knife and radiosurgery centre in the UAE, robotic surgery and extensive rehabilitation facilities. The Neuro Spinal Hospital and Radiosurgery Centre is four times the size of its former premises in Jumeirah. Patients will be able to receive acute and post-acute rehabilitation in Dubai Science Park in the hospital's surrounding open green spaces and gardens, designed for relaxation.


Clinical Departments at the hospital:


  • Back Pain & Spinal Unit
  • Brain Surgery Unit
  • Joint Replacement Center
  • Neurology Clinic
  • Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine
  • Scoliosis Unit
  • Oncology & Radiosurgery
  • ENT, Head and Neck

Prof. Abdul Karim Msaddi, Chairman and Medical Director of Neuro Spinal Hospital, stated: “We are proud to bring world-class healthcare services to Dubai and believe our next-generation hospital will be a game-changer for the emirate’s and the region’s medical industry. It will not only significantly increase the availability of specialist neuroscience and radiosurgery treatments and provide better patient care, but help attract and develop local and international talent. Investing in the new centre represents our continued faith in the resilience of the region’s economy, as well as a testament to our ongoing drive towards healthcare innovation in the UAE.”


Dubai Science Park


The Dubai Science Park (DSP) was established in 2015 and is home to more than 350 companies ranging from multinational corporations to SMEs employing over 3,600 people. It is the region's first science-focused business community, created to position the United Arab Emirates as destination for research and development, prototyping, creativity and innovation in areas of human, plant, material, environmental and energy sciences. 


Located in Al Barsha South, it is accessible from Umm Suqeim, Sheikh Zayed and Sheikh Mohammad Bin Zayed roads. Public bus transport is available via Route F36 from the Mall of the Emirates. It is located approximately 30 minutes from the Dubai International Airport. The company is a subsidiary of the Government of Dubai's holding company, Dubai Holding which invests in 10 sectors driving support and growth of a sustainable, innovation-led economy in line with the UAE government’s vision.


Marwan Abdulaziz Janahi, Managing Director of Dubai Science Park, commented  “Building an advanced healthcare industry is one of UAE’s key strategic objectives and we are proud to work closely with our business partners to contribute to this vision.” He added: “The Neuro Spinal Hospital and Radiosurgery Centre reflects our ongoing efforts to enhance Dubai’s medical sector by providing the right business environment and state-of-the-art infrastructure for companies. This hospital will contribute to the growth of the healthcare industry in the UAE and the region and provide residents with access to world-class care, promote medical tourism and enhance the UAE’s position as one of the most advanced countries in the world.”
