Jetex, a global leader in executive aviation, and American Hospital Dubai, the UAE's top and preferred healthcare destination, have launched a new cooperation to provide fast, state-of-the-art medical travel services for international patients.
The deal elevates Dubai's medical tourism to a new level, bringing together private planes and medical emergencies.
Patients can be transported to American Hospital Dubai through a fleet of ambulance aircraft equipped with intensive care units from anywhere in the world. Throughout the journey, the ambulance plane will provide top-notch medical aid and attention.
The medical team at American Hospital Dubai will greet patients and accompanying family members upon arrival at the Jetex VIP Terminal in Dubai, and will arrange ground or helicopter transportation to the hospital. In addition, throughout the family's stay in the city, Jetex Premier Experience can organise hotel accommodations and other amenities.
Dubai's reputation as a medical tourism hub will be enhanced by this new enterprise, which boasts world-class medical personnel, cutting-edge medical equipment, superior diagnostics, and inexpensive care and services.
The American Hospital, which has a capacity of 252 beds, is a leading healthcare provider in the Middle East and a preferred medical destination for international patients. It provides world-class patient care in more than 40 medical and surgical specialities, with a focus on highly tailored treatment and care plans.
Jetex, a well-known name in private aviation, assists international patients and their accompanying family members with efficient transportation, paying close attention to their demands and cultural expectations to ensure a comfortable and safe journey.
“We are happy to work with Jetex, a leader in executive aviation, on this initiative,” said Sherif Beshara, Group CEO of Mohamed & Obaid Almulla Group, the holding company of American Hospital Dubai. American Hospital Dubai has always been in the forefront of providing cutting-edge healthcare services. This cooperation demonstrates our commitment to providing the best possible service to overseas patients and ensuring that we are there for them at every step of their journey. Furthermore, I believe that this project will contribute significantly to Dubai's standing as a medical tourism hub.”
“We are happy to announce the cooperation between the American Hospital Dubai and Jetex, and launch the world's leading global healthcare programme,” Adel Mardini, Founder & CEO of Jetex, said in a statement following the signing of the deal. We conducted extensive research into international best practises in this area and elevated them to a whole new level to reflect Dubai's ambition as a global centre of medical excellence. We want to make sure that patients can trust on us to deliver them swiftly and safely to their medical destination no matter where they are in the world.”
“We welcome this relationship between Jetex and American Hospital Dubai as an example of the collaborative efforts that are powering the growth and development of our medical tourism ecosystem,” said Issam Kazim, CEO of Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing. This agreement will allow more people from around the world to benefit from the high-quality services provided in Dubai by using the city's reputation as a healthcare centre and leveraging the city's connectivity and logistics skills. Dubai has built a great reputation as a medical tourism destination in recent years, delivering knowledge, innovation, and high standards, and we continue to work with stakeholders to discover ways to further raise the city's status as a global leader in this field.”
