Abu Dhabi Sleep Clinics Now Offer Overnight Monitoring Packages for Residents

The Sleep and Respiratory Center at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi on Al Maryah Island opened additional slots for overnight polysomnography this month, with appointments available through the end of July.

Abu Dhabi residents have increased requests for clinical sleep assessments as longer daylight hours and indoor routines alter daily rest schedules. The Department of Health Abu Dhabi noted rising inquiries at public health desks in June about fatigue linked to irregular bedtimes.

Named clinics on Al Maryah Island and the Corniche

Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi lists its sleep study service on the seventh floor, where technicians record brain waves, oxygen levels and heart rate during an eight-hour session priced at 4,800 dirhams. Patients receive a report within five days and a follow-up visit with a pulmonologist on the same campus. A second option operates at the NMC Royal Hospital Sleep Lab near the Corniche, where portable home kits can be collected from the outpatient wing on Khalifa Street for 2,900 dirhams and returned the next morning for scoring.

Both locations require a referral from a primary-care physician and accept insurance from major providers including Daman and Abu Dhabi National Takaful. The NMC site also runs a daytime multiple sleep latency test for shift workers employed at ports or hotels, with results delivered in 48 hours.

Local data and next steps for booking

A March 2026 survey by the Abu Dhabi Health Authority found that adults in the emirate average 6.1 hours of sleep on weekdays, with 28 percent reporting symptoms consistent with obstructive sleep apnea. Clinics report that early intervention reduces related medical visits by an average of three per patient annually.

Residents can call the Cleveland Clinic sleep coordinator at 02-659-0200 or visit the NMC Royal outpatient desk before 4 p.m. to schedule an initial consultation. Those without a referral should first book a 15-minute telehealth screen through the DHA app to confirm eligibility before committing to an overnight study.
