My experience with Allocation Assist had been nothing short of brilliant.. Usually for doctors looking to relocate, gathering necessary and pertinent information, paperwork, documentation, application and registration with relevant health authority is a nightmare, given the lack of time and various other factors.. Allocation Assist made this move of mine absolutely seamless and almost effortless! Quite unbelievable actually.. Emilie and her entire team are lovely people ,helping you throughout the process.. even after your move.. If one is looking to relocate, there is really only one company to contact.. Recommend them most confidently.. Thanks again guys!Posted on Google![]()

I had an excellent experience with Allocation Assist throughout my entire relocation and licensing process. They supported me every step of the way, from obtaining my DHA license and completing the requirements to join American Hospital Dubai, to assisting with other professional licensing processes, including Saudi Commission approval. Each stage has its own specific requirements, documents, and details, which can easily become complicated and stressful. The Allocation team made the whole process much easier, clearer, and completely feasible. They were always available to guide me, explain what was needed, and help move each step forward efficiently. I am very grateful for their professionalism, support, and commitment throughout the entire journey. I highly recommend Allocation to any healthcare professional going through licensing, credentialing, or relocation in the UAE or the region.Posted on Google![]()

It’s been a very smooth journey with Allocation Assist. I started the process of getting my medical qualifications recognised in the UAE with them about a year ago. Since the beginning, everyone has been really helpful and proactive throughout every phase. Their support has made the whole process much easier to navigate. I highly recommend Allocation Assist to anyone thinking about working in Dubai as a doctor, because tackling the bureaucracy on your own can be time-consuming and frustrating.Posted on Google![]()

Getting a job in UAE while being overseas in the US was really a challenge given the complexity of hiring system here. Allocation assist have been with me from start to finish and continue to assist me throughout my stay in UAE. They’ve taken care of everything from licensing, interviews, CV updates and down to the moving process. I am grateful fo Emilie and her team including Josewin, Sumia, Rodaina and others who have been part of making this happen. Definitely would recommend if planning to work in UAE from another country.Posted on Google![]()

I have had a great experience with Emilie and her wonderful team at Allocation Assist. They were actually recommended to me by friends who had had very positive experiences. They team supported me at every stage, from providing advice and insight into the Gulf healthcare market, to sorting out professional licensing and paperwork, and arranging interviews with some of the best hospitals in the region. Their efforts ultimately resulted in several job offers, and I honestly don't think I could have navigated the process so efficiently without their support. I also had the opportunity to visit their Dubai office and was made to feel very welcome. The team spent more than an hour with me discussing the healthcare market, available opportunities and my career plans. Based on my own experience, I would strongly recommend them to doctors considering relocating to the Gulf.Posted on Google![]()

Allocation ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Assist I want to write this review as thoroughly as I can because this team genuinely deserves it and I know how much these reviews matter for a firm doing the kind of work they do. Allocation Assist specializes in helping Western trained physicians navigate the UAE licensing process and job market. If you are coming from Canada, the US, the UK, Europe or Australia, your credentials do not simply transfer. There is a process, it takes time, and the timeline varies depending on your specialty. What they do is walk you through every step while matching your profile to the right opportunities. My first contact was with Sumeya on the intake team. She was warm, professional, and completely honest. She made it clear that for a Western trained physician this would not happen overnight. In my case she projected six to nine months. I later learned that for certain specialties the timeline can extend to one to two years. That transparency is rare and valuable and she made sure I had the right mindset from day one. Violet Wifengla took full ownership of my licensing and she was exceptional. She responded immediately, was fully dedicated, and genuinely kind throughout what can otherwise be a stressful and bureaucratic process. I always knew where things stood and never had to chase anything. Zarni, their in-house medical doctor, then personally reviewed and reshaped my CV for the UAE market. This is not a generic editing service. He understands the clinical landscape, knows what hiring panels look for, and repositions your profile with real market knowledge. My subspecialty background was identified as a significant asset and my profile was positioned as such. Mohamed Refaat was my main coordinator and steady point of contact throughout. He was consistently responsive, made sure every question was answered, and ensured nothing fell through the cracks at any stage. Mohamed Othman and Rudaina Thabit worked the market on my behalf, reaching out to hospitals and managing connections with prospective employers. Their outreach opened the doors, including to the reputable and premier centre in Abu Dhabi where I ultimately accepted my position. Allocation Assist already had an established relationship there and had successfully placed physicians at that institution before, which made a real difference; as they already knew my profile was thoroughly vetted . One thing worth noting is that at certain points during the process, staff transitioned to other roles within the firm. Every single time, the handover was seamless. Whoever stepped in was fully briefed, completely up to date, and picked up exactly where things left off without a single gap. That kind of internal organization is not common and it speaks to how seriously they take their physician clients. Every one of them, Sumeya, Violet, Zarni, Mohamed Refaat, Mohamed Othman, and Rudaina, functioned like a well oiled machine with real humanity. Kind, professional, responsive, and genuinely invested. Slack communication was prompt without exception, feedback was actively solicited throughout, and coordination across the team including with prospective employers HR was seamless. Emilie Davies leads this firm and it shows in everything the team does and how they carry themselves. My advice: keep your current position and engage with them in parallel. Do not make this your only option while you wait. Trust their process and their timeline projections because they are accurate. If you are patient, realistic, and confident in your profile, and they are confident in it too, your opportunity will come. Five stars without question. If a sixth existed, I would give it without hesitation.Posted on Google![]()

Allocation Assist has been instrumental in getting me the right job in the UAE. The UAE is a tight market place with jobs not being advertised in the public domain which is where Allocation Assist stepped in and made the process smoother. The licensing process was managed efficiently by Fawad and Rhodaina kept me updated about job vacancies and interviews throughout the whole process. A special word for Emilie who has really worked on making Allocation Assist the organisation that it is today ,working on the finer details of getting a job, interview processes and educating expatriate doctors on the the demands of the job market has been her niche.Posted on Google![]()

The team was responsive, transparent, and supportive at every step. Of course, when the documentation is complete, the process becomes much smoother. There can be some challenges along the way, as the pathway to practice in the UAE requires proper preparation and compliance with regulations. However, the team consistently did their best and remained cooperative and supportive throughout the journey.Posted on Google![]()
