Right Health, the UAE’s largest and fastest-growing value healthcare organization, backed by Foundation Holdings, has launched its latest healthcare clinic and pharmacy in Dubai’s Al Aweer area. The addition of the clinic brings the total number of Right Health’s healthcare facilities to 35 across the UAE and 20 in Dubai.
The launch of the clinic and pharmacy aligns with Right Health’s commitment to making quality healthcare affordable and accessible to the UAE’s large blue-collar segment. The new clinic caters to laborers housed at worker accommodations, as well as residents of the Al Aweer area. The facility as well as the pharmacy attached to the clinic operates daily from 8am to 11pm.
Osama Al Rahma, Chief Executive Officer at Al Fardan Exchange, attended the launch as a chief guest and said: “I am close to this community as we are in the remittance industry. We need to think about how we can add more value to this market and I believe that Right Health is doing just that by offering better quality in treatments along with being affordable for the community.”
Right Health’s earnest efforts to expand its presence across the country supports the objective of the National Agenda of the UAE Vision 2021 to establish a world-class healthcare system for its citizens.
For the opening of the Right Health clinic and pharmacy, Dr Ibtesam Bastaki, Director of Investment and Partnership at Dubai Health Authority, said: “Offering accessible healthcare solutions to the working population, as the UAE’s healthcare ecosystem continues to evolve is an important endeavor to ensure the inclusivity of healthcare benefits to all. It is very encouraging to see Right Health taking the right steps to bring quality healthcare to blue-collar workers. We wish them continued success.”
Dr Sanjay Paithankar, Managing Director at Right Health, said: “Right Health is in a period of unprecedented growth, with significant increases in patient volumes. The Al Aweer facility will support us to meet this growing demand. The clinic will cater to the residential population of over 7,000 and can accommodate more than 100 patient visits daily and offers services that have been tailored to the current and future needs of our patients.”
To date, Right Health has impacted more than 450,000 patients and aims to touch one million lives by 2022 as it continues to expand its network of clinics, pharmacies, drug stores and laboratories across the UAE.
