What should I review before investing in a small medical clinic?
I am considering investing in a small clinic. It has good location and patient flow, but I am worried about doctor retention, licensing, insurance approvals, and whether revenue depends on one specialist.

Check DHA or MOH licensing depending on the emirate, doctor contracts, insurance network approvals, malpractice coverage, patient source, rent terms, equipment ownership, and whether the medical director must remain. If one doctor drives most revenue, the investment depends on that person staying.
Review revenue by doctor and by insurance provider. Clinics can show strong gross revenue but slow collections from insurers. Cash flow timing matters.
Do not assume licenses transfer easily. Healthcare licensing can be person-specific and facility-specific. Confirm the regulatory path before investing.
