How We Rank Orthopedic Surgery Doctors
The orthopedic surgery 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: orthopedic surgery 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 orthopedic surgery in Dubai?
Based on staff count, Rashid Hospital - Dubai Health has the largest orthopedic surgery department in Dubai with 37 licensed orthopedic surgery professionals on staff, followed by Adam Vital Hospital (22 staff).
How are the best orthopedic surgery doctors in Dubai ranked?
Orthopedic Surgery 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 orthopedic surgery specialist and consultant?
Both are licence titles under the unified UAE Professional Qualification Requirements (PQR), which DHA applies in Dubai. A Orthopedic Surgery Specialist holds a recognised specialty qualification and needs no further experience if it is graded Tier 1 or Tier 2. A Orthopedic Surgery 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 orthopedic surgery doctor's license in Dubai?
You can verify any orthopedic surgery 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 917 orthopedic surgery professionals listed here come from the Sheryan Medical Registry.
