American Hospital Dubai has announced the upcoming opening of a representative office in Abuja, slated for December 2024. This office will serve as a key link between the Dubai-based hospital and Nigerian patients, providing easier access to advanced medical care in Dubai.

This follows the successful launch of the hospitals first Nigerian office in Lagos on August 19, 2024. The Lagos office was commissioned by the UAE Consulate General in Nigeria, Dr. Abdullah Al-Mandoos, alongside the Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi, who represented Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Board Member of American Hospital Dubai Nigeria Limited, Prince Tonye Princewill, highlighted the hospitals plans for further expansion within Nigeria. We considered setting up additional representative offices to ensure broader access to our services. Just like the Lagos office, the Abuja office will also serve as another healthcare ˜embassy, bridging the gap between enquiries and travel to the American Hospital Dubai for medical treatment. The hospital is quite popular with Nigerians, but we dont want to take them for granted. Princewill said.

The Abuja office, like Its Lagos counterpart, will assist Nigerian patients with visas, flights, and accommodation, making it easier for them to receive world-class healthcare in Dubai if needed. This expansion reflects the first phase of the American Hospital Dubais commitment to investing in Nigeria and improving healthcare access for its people. The state of the art diagnostic centre comes next.
