Three Magrabi Health facilities in Saudi Arabia have been recognised among the world’s top 175 hospitals and clinics for ophthalmology in Newsweek’s World’s Best Hospitals & Clinics for Medical Tourism 2027 ranking, highlighting the Kingdom’s growing reputation as a global healthcare destination.
The recognised facilities are Magrabi Health Eye – North Jeddah, Eye and Dental – Makkah, and Magrabi Health Eye and Ear – Madina Road, Jeddah. The ranking was developed by Newsweek in partnership with Statista and recognises leading healthcare providers serving international patients.
The achievement reflects Magrabi Health’s continued investment in specialised medical services, advanced technologies and improved patient care. It also supports Saudi Arabia’s efforts to strengthen its position in the international medical tourism sector.
Commenting on the recognition, Magrabi Health CEO Mr. Mutasim Alireza said, “This is an exceptional achievement that we are all proud of. It reflects Magrabi Health’s dedication to delivering specialised healthcare and medical tourism services in line with the highest international standards.”
He added that the recognition highlights the hard work of the group’s medical and support teams and their commitment to delivering quality care. He also stressed the importance of advancing specialised healthcare and medical tourism services in Saudi Arabia.
The 2027 ranking evaluates healthcare facilities across 13 destinations worldwide and covers six major medical specialties, including ophthalmology, cancer care, cardiac care, bariatric surgery, orthopaedics, and plastic and reconstructive surgery.
The assessment is based on five key areas: recommendations from healthcare professionals and medical tourism facilitators, international accreditations, patient experience, patient support services and the Statista Medical Tourism Facility Survey. It also considers online patient reviews, public trust and services such as remote consultations, travel assistance, language support and follow-up care.
Magrabi Health provides specialised services in ophthalmology, ear, nose and throat (ENT), dentistry and aesthetics through its Mayam Aesthetics brand.
The recognition comes as Saudi Arabia continues to transform its healthcare sector under Vision 2030 and the Health Sector Transformation Program, focusing on improving service quality, accessibility and patient experience while attracting more international patients.
