Mediclinic Middle East has announced an investment of over $32 million (AED 120 million) to expand and upgrade its flagship facility, Mediclinic Airport Road Hospital, in the UAE capital.
The investment will be directed towards developing the hospital’s medical infrastructure, aiming to improve its capacity to deliver high-quality healthcare services to patients and families across the emirate.
Mediclinic Middle East announced the investment during its participation in Abu Dhabi Global Health Week, according to the press statement.
The expansion project, which is already underway, includes the development of several key departments, such as new consultation rooms, an expanded operating theatre complex, new gastrointestinal endoscopy units, and increased capacity for daycare beds. It will also add new maternity rooms and expand the capacity of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
Hein van Eck, CEO of Mediclinic Middle East, said that, “This investment marks a significant step in our mission to meet the evolving healthcare needs of the Abu Dhabi community. Ever since we entered the Abu Dhabi market in 2016, Mediclinic has worked to expand and improve its facilities and service offerings, not only enhancing patient care, but also supporting the Department of Health’s commitment to innovation and long-term health system sustainability.”
This expansion reflects Mediclinic’s ongoing commitment to delivering world-class healthcare services in Abu Dhabi and will significantly enhance the patient experience by improving both accessibility and the range of specialist care available.
Further, the upgraded infrastructure aligns with the Department of Health’s strategic priorities including empowering a health-conscious population, providing access to best-in-class care, and delivering high-quality outcomes and experience, as a globally competitive health and life sciences sector.
