Danat Al Emarat Hospital (DAE) () is a private specialist women's and children hospital in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Danat Al Emarat opened in August 2015 and provides maternity, neonatal, paediatric and women's healthcare services, including in high-risk pregnancy and general delivery, adult and pediatric intensive care units, and surgical procedures and a 24-hour walk in clinic. The hospital is part of the M42 healthcare network.
History Planning for Danat Al Emarat Hospital was announced in 2008, when United Eastern Medical Services signed an agreement with ParkwayHealth to provide clinical-development services and manage the planned women's and children's hospital. The hospital was designed by HKS Architects. Construction of Danat Al Emarat Hospital began with an official groundbreaking on 15 September 2009.
The hospital opened to its first patients on 6 August 2015, and was officially inaugurated by Sheikha Fatima bint Murabak on 6 December 2017.
In January 2018, Danat al Emarat and the HealthPlus Network of Specialty Centres entered into a clinical partnership with The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in Toronto to support tertiary paediatric services to Abu Dhabi through physician training and clinical collaboration. In the same year, the hospital began a second phase of construction with an AED 300 million expansion announced in December 2018. The phase included the construction of a six-storey South Tower, which added 72 beds, and expanded peripartum services.
In June 2021, Mubadala Health acquired a 60 percent controlling stake in United Eastern Medical Services, bringing Danat Al Emarat into the Mubadala Health network.
In April 2023, G42 (an AI technology holding group based in Abu Dhabi) and Mubadala Investment Company combined the G42 Healthcare and Mubadala Health entities to form a new company called M42, of which the hospital became a part.
