The Good Stuff
NICU guidance
NICU staff taught a first-time mother how to breastfeed, hold and burp her baby, and explained the important dos and don’ts.
Cardiac care
A cardiac-emergency review specifically mentions angiogram and angioplasty procedures during the patient’s hospital stay.
Clear explanations
One family said doctors and nurses explained procedures, treatment options and after-care clearly and in detail.
Clean wards
A Medical 10 West review described the ward as clean and well organized alongside professional medical care.
Helpful administration
Birth-certificate reissuance was described as smooth, clear and stress-free, making the hospital’s administrative services useful too.
Responsive nurses
A cardiac-surgery patient highlighted the team’s quick response to health-related requests and dedicated nursing care.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm deposits. If you have an operation planned, ask admissions about the deposit and payment policy beforehand; one reviewer said a 2k deposit was not negotiable.
Ask NICU questions. For a premature or newborn admission, ask the NICU team to demonstrate feeding, holding and burping; a parent found this guidance valuable.
Use customer care. If you arrive before visiting hours, explain the situation to customer care rather than relying on entrance security alone.
Locate washrooms. On a ward visit, ask early where the female washroom key is kept, as one reviewer said access was unclear.
Ask for guidance. For birth-certificate reissuance, ask the administrative staff to clarify requirements; a reviewer said their guidance made the process straightforward.

The Bottom Line
Dubai Hospital in Deira is a public tertiary-care hospital where you can use emergency, inpatient and outpatient services, with specialist care that reviews repeatedly place in the oncology, hematology, cardiac and maternity departments. It is worth considering when you need sustained treatment rather than a quick appointment: one family described two years of oncology consultations, chemotherapy sessions and follow-ups, while another patient reported angiogram and angioplasty procedures after a cardiac emergency. The strongest pattern in the reviews is hands-on nursing care.
NICU parents mention being taught how to breastfeed, hold and burp their babies, while other families describe calm explanations during surgery, critical illness and long admissions. The hospital also handles practical administrative requests; birth-certificate reissuance was reported as smooth and clearly guided. There are some important caveats.
A patient said an operation required a 2k deposit and that a request to pay only 1k initially was refused. Another reported a cannula being left in place for two hours, and a ward visitor struggled to get the female washroom key. A few reviews also describe discourteous interactions with admissions or security, so confirm payment requirements, visiting arrangements and basic facilities early rather than assuming the process will be seamless.
