Qatar-based healthcare provider, Naseem Medical, to establish a new outpost in Dodoma, Tanzania's capital city.
In a significant move, Naseem Medical Centre, a leading healthcare provider, is set to open a new branch in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The decision to expand into Tanzania was well thought out, as the country presents several opportunities for healthcare providers.
As Tanzania's largest city and economic hub, Dar es Salaam offers access to a large urban population in need of quality healthcare services. The city's growing demand for private healthcare is driven by challenges in the public health sector, such as limited capacity and quality.
By choosing Dar es Salaam, Naseem Medical Centre aims to serve a growing middle class and expatriate community, tap into an emerging healthcare market in East Africa, and benefit from regional trade and cooperation. The strategic location of Dar es Salaam, with its infrastructure and connectivity, further facilitates supply chains and patient access.
The new branch, known as the Surgical Centre, will offer a wide range of procedures, including basic surgery, orthopaedic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, gynaecology, medical urology, ENT, dental and maxillofacial surgery, and intrusive diagnostic treatments under gastroenterology. The Surgical Centre also boasts a gastro suite for colonoscopies and endoscopies.
The medical team at the Surgical Centre consists of over 15 medical professionals with a medical privilege of more than 100 various procedures. Nearly 90% of keyhole surgeries at the Surgical Centre are performed with the help of arthroscopy and laparoscopy. The Centre is equipped with three highly advanced operation theaters, capable of performing between 15 to 20 surgical procedures daily.
Dr. Munir Ali Ibrahim, General Manager of Naseem Healthcare, stated that they chose Tanzania because they were given a prime location in the city. The Ambassador of Tanzania to Qatar, H.E. Dr. Maladhi Juma Maalim, congratulated Naseem for introducing a surgical centre in Doha and supported the decision to open a branch in Tanzania.
According to Dr. Munir, Naseem Medical Centre does not compromise on quality and offers services at an affordable cost, regardless of the patient's financial status. The opening of the Surgical Centre in March this year is a significant milestone for Naseem Medical Centre, as it accommodates several clinical treatments. The Centre's doors are always open to everyone; healthcare for all is its motto. The branch opening will bring affordable, high-quality clinical services to the public.
By expanding into Tanzania, Naseem Medical Centre aims to access an increasing patient base with unmet healthcare needs, potentially forge partnerships with local institutions or government programs promoting health services, and enjoy growth prospects in a less saturated healthcare market compared to more developed countries. The Centre also presents an opportunity to introduce advanced medical technology and standards that differentiate their services.
