Top 10 Hospitals & Clinics for Gastroenterology
How We Rank Gastroenterology Doctors
The gastroenterology ranking is based on facility size as reported in the Sheryan Medical Registry: the number of professionals licensed at the facility that holds each doctor's licence. Doctors at facilities with more licensed staff are listed first. Facility size is not a measure of a doctor's skill or results; the register holds no outcome data or patient reviews.
Only FTL (Full-time License) holders are included: gastroenterology professionals with an active full-time licence at a named Dubai facility. Registered Only (REG) professionals hold no facility licence and cannot practise until a facility activates one, so they are left out, as are the few part-time (PTL) and trainee (TRL) licences.
No paid placements and no review scores are used. The order comes only from the public register data.

What is the best hospital for gastroenterology in Dubai?
Based on staff count, Rashid Hospital - Dubai Health has the largest gastroenterology department in Dubai with 8 licensed gastroenterology professionals on staff, followed by Mediclinic City Hospital (6 staff).
How are the best gastroenterology doctors in Dubai ranked?
Gastroenterology doctors are listed in order of the size of the facility that holds their licence, measured by the number of professionals licensed there on the Sheryan Medical Registry. That is an ordering by facility size, not a measure of clinical quality: the register carries no outcome data and no patient reviews. Only doctors with a full-time licence (FTL) are included, and there are no paid placements.
What is the difference between a gastroenterology specialist and consultant?
Both are licence titles under the unified UAE Professional Qualification Requirements (PQR), which DHA applies in Dubai. A Gastroenterology Specialist holds a recognised specialty qualification and needs no further experience if it is graded Tier 1 or Tier 2. A Gastroenterology Consultant needs 2 years of experience after a Tier 1 qualification or 5 years after Tier 2, and a Tier 3 qualification cannot lead to the Consultant title. The register lists the two titles separately.
How do I verify a gastroenterology doctor's license in Dubai?
You can verify any gastroenterology doctor's licence through the Sheryan portal run by Dubai's health regulator. Search by doctor name or licence number to confirm their licence status, specialty, and current facility affiliation. The 256 gastroenterology professionals listed here come from the Sheryan Medical Registry.
