Doha: Alfardan Medical with Northwestern Medicine welcomed many high-ranking executives from their strategic partners in Chicago, Northwestern Medicine, to emphasise the American team’s involvement at AMNM. 

AMNM adopts a patient-centric model, where the patient always comes first. Recently, as part of a continuous Quality Improvement Plan, key stakeholders from Northwestern Medicine and Alfardan Group held organisational workshops to continue improving upon the processes laid out in AMNM’s mission: to deliver the most advanced care with service excellence.

Speaking on the partnership, Dr. Daniel Derman, Vice-President of Operations for Northwestern Memorial Hospital said: “The partnership between Alfardan Group and Northwestern Medicine leverages both organizations’ complementary strengths: Alfardan Group’s legacy of providing exclusive experiences in Qatar, and Northwestern Medicine’s established reputation in the medical field as one of the top 10 hospitals in the USA.” 

Omar Hussain Alfardan, President and CEO of Alfardan Group said, “AMNM is proudly bringing excellent, high-quality healthcare and medical specialities to the region, contributing to the position of Qatar as a hub for premium healthcare, advanced medical services, and medical tourism, unwaveringly working towards the human development pillar of the Qatar National Vision 2030. Qatar is striving to build a knowledge-based economy and society, including advanced health systems, and we aim to meet this challenge by fulfilling the healthcare needs of existing and future generations.”

AMNM plans for continued expansion and collaboration with the launching of new offerings and continuously improving existing specialities. Current specialities include Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT), Dentistry, Dermatology, Gastroenterology, Internal Medicine, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, Cardiology, Plastic Surgery, Fertility Medicine & Gynaecology, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Sleep Medicine, Paediatrics, Endocrinology, Radiology and Lab, and Executive Health. Plans are underway for the launch of Psychiatry and Psychology. AMNM also has a pioneering focus on tackling community-wide chronic illnesses such as the establishment of a Diabetes Excellence Centre. 

AMNM offers an evidence-based, American healthcare model as a premium surgery centre, and a recent expansion also allows surgical patients to stay overnight at the facility for up to 48 hours after their procedure. The AMNM team has the opportunity to consult with doctors at Northwestern Medicine for some cases live during surgeries and can refer patients directly to Chicago for more specialised treatments if needed. 

Alfardan Medical with Northwestern Medicine adheres to international benchmarks and standards of medical infrastructure and services. AMNM offers patients and their families a unique, upscale setting with innovative services and experienced physicians.
