33,100 Google reviews
Exceptional for a hospital
Top 1%
better than ~99% of hospitals
A hospital's stars run far lower than shops or restaurants — reviews are written amid illness, big bills and stress, and unhappy patients review the most. The average hospital scores just 2.85★ on Google, so This hospital's 4.8★ sits near the top of the range.
Rating is Google's, shown as reported (33,100 reviews). The "top %" is an estimate from peer-reviewed hospital-rating studies (Canadian nationwide 2018–19, n=167, mean 2.85★; US hospitals, median 3.0★) — we score against the hospital distribution, not the naive 0–5 scale.
Patients rate Aster Hospital Al Qusais 4.8★ across 33,100 Google reviews — exceptional for a hospital, better than roughly 99% of hospitals on our worldwide rating benchmark.

Traveling to Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Hospitals in Dubai Healthcare City, Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi and American Hospital Dubai coordinate approvals directly with the GDRFA.
