Technological advancements, rising pet ownership, and increased urbanization are key market opportunities for Middle East veterinary hospitals. Investment in advanced diagnostic tools and AI-driven care, coupled with government initiatives and the rise of specialty centers, propels growth and modernizes regional animal healthcare.
Dublin, Feb. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Middle East Veterinary Hospital Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Animal, Type (Surgery, Medicine, Consultation), Sector (Public, Private), Country with Growth Forecasts, 2025-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Middle East veterinary hospital market size was estimated at USD 750.11 million in 2024 and is projected to reach at USD 1.40 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7.30% from 2025 to 2033.
Some of the factors driving the market growth are rising pet ownership and urbanization, government initiatives, technological integration and specialty care expansion, and increasing investment and public-private partnerships (PPP).
Technological advancement is emerging as one of the most transformative drivers of the Middle East veterinary hospitals market, reshaping both the quality and accessibility of animal healthcare. Historically, basic treatment and preventive care were the primary objectives of veterinary services in the region. However, modernization is increasing due to expanding pet ownership, greater consumer demands, and the influence of international veterinary standards. Veterinary hospitals in countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait are actively leading investments in advanced diagnostic and surgical technologies, digital tools, and specialized clinical services to set new standards in outcomes and operational efficiency.
The use of digital health technologies has increased in recent years. Hospitals are increasingly utilizing digital imaging technologies and electronic medical records (EMRs) to enable faster data sharing, continuity of care, and more precise diagnostics. Leading hospitals now have access to diagnostic imaging instruments, including CT scanners, ultrasound systems, and endoscopic units, which enable accurate internal evaluations and minimally invasive operations. For instance, the UAE recently witnessed the first minimally invasive cardiac surgery performed on pets, marking a significant milestone in regional veterinary innovation. These developments highlight the increasing adoption of advanced medical technology in animal healthcare, bridging the quality gaps that previously existed between local and Western standards.
Telemedicine and AI-enabled diagnostics represent transformative growth vectors, particularly within the region's urban veterinary hospital chains. Notably, the partnership between Sylvester AI and Nova Vet Family introduced artificial intelligence for feline pain detection across the Middle East and North Africa, signifying the market's growing commitment to predictive, data-driven care. These technologies significantly enhance diagnostic accuracy, facilitating early disease detection and effective pain management to deliver superior patient outcomes.
The rise of specialty and referral hospitals is also a defining trend. Multispecialty centers offering a range of services, including orthopedics, cardiology, dermatology, dentistry, and exotic animal care, are expanding across the region. Facilities such as Modern Vet in Dubai and Salam Veterinary Group in Saudi Arabia exemplify this shift, offering 24-hour advanced surgical and emergency services. These hospitals are staffed with specialized veterinarians trained internationally, further elevating regional expertise.
However, technological adoption remains concentrated in wealthier, urbanized markets due to both significant capital requirements and the demand for highly skilled personnel. As governments and leading investors increasingly prioritize modernization of the veterinary sector, exemplified by initiatives such as Saudi Vision 2030 and the UAE's stringent animal welfare reforms, the diffusion of advanced technology and specialized care across the region is poised to accelerate. This transformation unequivocally positions the Middle East veterinary hospital market toward enhanced clinical sophistication, operational efficiency, and sustained growth.
