The home of patient-centered care in the UAE, the Dr Humeira Badsha Medical Center was born out of the desire to bring a wider care mission to Dubai, the UAE, and the region. “Founded on the concept of putting patient’s needs first, patient care at the Center is based on solid communication by involving the patients and their families in their care and medical decisions,” says the man himself “and treating our patients the way we wish to be treated ourselves is what drives us every day.” The motto defines what Center staff believe in and certainly influences its decisions and actions on an ongoing basis. “It forms the foundation of our core values - excellence, integrity, compassion, respect and teamwork,” adds the good doctor. In keeping with the highest standards in quality of care, the center prides itself on the state-of-the art equipment in situ such as that for musculoskeletal ultrasound, lab testing, and body composition analysis. With World Arthritis Day 2018 on October 12, the Dr Humeira Badsha Medical Center will be playing its part in furthering the cause in RA care and research.
