NMC Healthcare is seeking a Specialist in Orthopaedic Surgery to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions, including fractures, joint disorders, sports injuries and degenerative diseases. The role may involve outpatient consultations, surgical procedures, pre- and post-operative care, emergency support and collaboration with physiotherapists, radiologists and other clinical teams. Candidates should hold a recognized medical degree, postgraduate qualification in Orthopaedics, valid specialist registration or eligibility for UAE licensing, and relevant hospital experience. Strong surgical judgment, communication skills, patient-centred care and the ability to work within clinical governance and safety standards are expected. Experience with modern orthopaedic techniques and minimally invasive procedures would be advantageous.
NMC Healthcare is one of the United Arab Emirates’ leading private healthcare providers, with hospitals, medical centres, pharmacies and long-term care services across the country. Established in Abu Dhabi, the group has developed a broad network serving local residents, expatriates and international patients. Its services cover multiple specialties, including orthopaedics, surgery, women’s health, internal medicine, emergency care and diagnostics. NMC facilities generally combine consultant-led care with modern technology and multidisciplinary clinical teams. The organisation employs doctors, nurses, allied health professionals and support staff from many countries, creating a multicultural working environment. Exact duties, benefits and employment terms vary by facility and contract, so applicants should confirm licensing requirements, working hours, on-call arrangements and compensation directly with the recruitment team.
Usual for Healthcare jobs in the UAE, varies by employer. Checked November 2026.
Senior staff often get more than line staff, for example a single room or a yearly home flight. Ask the employer what the job includes before you accept.
How it works: Employer-sponsored permit; the portal lists no local-first test. Physicians and lab technicians must pass local licence exams (emirate or federal health authority).
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: The portal does not name nurses: ask the hospital which licence and exams your role needs, who books them and who pays.
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
