Cleveland Clinic

Cleveland Clinic is one of the world’s top hospital systems, advancing healthcare through innovation, research, education, and a commitment to patientcentred care. As a global leader with locations in Ohio, Florida, Nevada, Toronto, London, and Abu Dhabi, Cleveland Clinic is connecting patients to world-class healthcare across the globe

Central to Cleveland Clinic is one of the largest integrated heart centres in the world. Since the 1950s, they have pioneered cardiovascular care from valve surgeries to advanced transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures. Their dedicated multidisciplinary team has driven numerous breakthroughs in cardiology and surgery, redefining heart care for patients globally.

Cleveland Clinic Florida is a destination for the diagnosis and treatment of complex medical and surgical conditions. Highly skilled specialists offer a full range of care, including minimally invasive robotic heart surgery, transplant surgery, colorectal surgery, gastroenterology, orthopaedic surgery, and spine surgery. Their integrated, multi-specialty teams offer patients access to advanced treatments, clinical trials and new technologies.

With leading specialists and decades of experience treating patients from all over the world, Cleveland Clinic Florida is a vital hub for patients in need of complex, lifesaving procedures.

As Cleveland Clinic continues to expand specialty care globally, it is also transforming the landscape in neurological treatment. The 2025 unveiling of the one-million-squarefoot Neurological Building on Cleveland Clinic’s main campus marks a leap in care for the brain, nerves, and spine. This state-of-the-art facility will serve as a global command centre for neurological expertise, extending to locations like London and Nevada. Advanced telemedicine capabilities will ensure that even patients in remote areas can access specialised neurological care.

Just as Cleveland Clinic is breaking new ground in neurological care, it has also expanded its footprint in cancer care globally. In a fitting milestone ahead of Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi’s 10th anniversary, Cleveland Clinic commemorated the recent opening of the Fatima bint Mubarak Centre. In just over a year, the 205,000-square-foot facility has brought transformative cancer care to thousands of patients across the Middle East, from screening and diagnostic testing to advanced radiation treatments and precision cellular therapies, pioneering new procedures and delivery.

Cleveland Clinic London recently announced an expansion of their clinical services with a new cancer centre, set to begin construction in late 2025. This centre will provide one of the most comprehensive cancer programs in the UK independent market, delivering personalised multidisciplinary care tailored to each patient’s needs.

These achievements are made possible by a trusted healthcare leader that connects patients around the world to the care they need, when and where they need it.

As part of the continued effort to ensure greater access to quality care for patients around the world, Cleveland Clinic’s Global Patient Services team is available 24/7 to arrange online consultations, second opinions and in-person treatments, ensuring patients receive the right care in the right place. In-country representatives across regions – from Latin America to the Caribbean and the Middle East – offer personalised guidance and logistical support, helping patients navigate their healthcare journey with confidence and ease.

“For over a century, Cleveland Clinic has been committed to making world-class care accessible, personalised, and seamless – no matter where you are in the world.”
