Dr. Hassan Ghazzawi Hospital, a healthcare provider under the management of Abeer Medical Group, has achieved a major milestone in its journey toward excellence in maternal healthcare. The hospital has successfully delivered 25,000 babies, a testament to its unwavering commitment to providing safe and compassionate care to expectant mothers and their newborns.
The hospital holds prestigious accreditation from the Central Board for Accreditation of Healthcare Institutions and the Joint Commission International. Originally established as a polyclinic in 1983, it evolved into a full-fledged hospital four years later and became a part of Abeer Medical Group in 2010.
Alungal Mohammad, president of Abeer Medical Group, in a statement expressed his heartfelt pride in the hospital’s achievement of 25,000 safe deliveries. He thanked all the staff for their hard work, dedication, and commitment to providing exceptional care to the patients.
A commemorative event, titled “25000 Miracles,” was held at the Park Hyatt Jeddah, honoring doctors, nurses, and other support staff who played pivotal roles in achieving the remarkable feat. This achievement was particularly special because it occurred during the 25th anniversary year of Abeer Medical Group.
Dr. Ahmed Alungal, executive vice president, recalled the vision of the founder and thanked all the staff for achieving the milestone. Dr. Jemshith Ahmed, vice president of strategic planning and medical affairs, spoke about the special bond between the patient and doctor, which lasts from the announcement of pregnancy to delivery and beyond. He highlighted the exceptional sacrifices of gynecologists as they treat two individuals simultaneously — mother and child.
As the parents stepped forward to share their experiences, their emotions spilled out, raw and unfiltered. They spoke of the fear and the uncertainty they had felt, the challenges they had faced, and the overwhelming joy they had experienced when they held their newborns for the first time.
Dr. Hassan Ghazzawi, the visionary leader behind the hospital’s success, expressed profound gratitude to the health care team, parents, and the community for their unwavering support throughout the journey.
He said that the celebration not only commemorates the birth of 25,000 babies but also underscores the hospital’s ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional maternal care services.
Dr. Sarfraz Ahmed, vice president operations; Dr. Afsar, vice president RCM; and Dr. Faheem handed out certificates to all the staff. Dr. Jamal, Shabna, and others, shared their insights, experiences and presented some case studies.
The event also included a panel discussion featuring various doctors, as well as vibrant cultural programs.
