As the UAE experiences a surge in demand for medical robotics – a trend that has seen interest grow by more than 60% in recent years, the Specialized Rehabilitation Hospital (SRH) in Abu Dhabi is underscoring the critical role technology plays in shaping the future of rehabilitation care.
Medical robotics and smart rehabilitation tools are rapidly becoming integral to treatment plans for patients recovering from stroke, spinal cord injuries, and complex orthopedic conditions. SRH is among the healthcare providers in the region exploring how these technologies can enhance recovery timelines, improve precision, and boost patient engagement.
“Robotics has the potential to transform rehabilitation by supporting patients through highly repetitive, accurate movements that help rewire neural pathways,” said Dr. Mishal Al Qasimi, CEO of Capital Health. “As awareness grows, we see an opportunity to educate the community on how these solutions complement traditional therapy.”
Robotic-assisted devices, ranging from exoskeletons and gait trainers to smart therapy platforms, have been shown internationally to deliver measurable improvements in mobility and functional independence. In the UAE, this momentum is part of a broader vision to establish the country as a regional leader in advanced healthcare innovation.
SRH continues to explore new ways to integrate technology into patient-centered care, combining evidence-based rehabilitation programs with emerging tools that can empower individuals to regain confidence and independence after injury or illness.
