Watch: Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed visits Saudi German hospital in Dubai

Highlighting the importance of public-private partnerships in Dubai’s healthcare sector, Sheikh Ahmed said: “Aligned with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Dubai, to consolidate the city’s position. As a leading global healthcare destination, the emirate is committed to ensuring the highest quality of investment in various medical fields.”

He added: “Through strong public-private partnerships, Dubai continues to increase excellence and competitiveness in its healthcare sector. The city’s world-class infrastructure fosters an ideal environment to attract investment and talent to this crucial sector. Dubai’s ability to offer world-class medical facilities and high-quality patient-centric healthcare has also fueled its growth as a vibrant medical tourism hub.”

The recently opened Orthopedics and Traumatology extension focuses on complex trauma and related subspecialties. Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and staffed by highly trained teams of orthopedic surgeons, doctors, nurses and therapists, it offers a wide range of specialist orthopedic services including joint replacements and treatments for sports-related injuries.

Sheikh Ahmed toured the hospital, which has state-of-the-art healthcare facilities equipped with the latest advanced technology. The hospital is home to one of the largest 55-bed emergency departments in the private sector, including a trauma center and a dedicated pediatric emergency unit. Additionally, the facility offers robotic surgeries and robotic rehabilitation, demonstrating its commitment to integrating innovative technologies into healthcare.

The establishment of the hospital, with 200 beds and over 150 OPD clinics, is another outcome of Dubai leaders’ vision to leverage strong public-private partnerships to expand healthcare facilities in Dubai and elevate the quality of services in the sector.

Eng. Sobhi Batterjee said: “The development of the hospital in Dubai reflects our commitment to providing world-class healthcare facilities. We envision a comprehensive healthcare environment where specialized care meets international standards. Since its establishment in 2012, Saudi German Health Group has become a global medical center that attracts patients from all corners of the world.”

At the end of the tour, Sheikh Ahmed posed for a commemorative photograph with senior officials, doctors and other staff of the organization.
