Burjeel Holdings, a leading super-specialty healthcare provider in the Mena region, has announced that it has won the board approval to launch its first two specialised day surgery centres in Saudi capital Riyadh next year. 

 

These centres will provide sophisticated minimally invasive comprehensive services constituting key specialties, including oncology, advanced gynecology, orthopedics and neurology. 

 

The group plans to introduce internationally affiliated centres to the kingdom to ensure its customers gain access to the best services, including the most advanced robotics solutions for patient care.

 

These centres, which will be wholly owned and operated by Burjeel Holdings, aims to provide a specialised service offering in the kingdom, a market with significant growth expectations and strong demand for tailored healthcare services. 

 

Dr. Shamsheer Vayalil, Founder and Chairman of Burjeel Holdings, said: "We’re immensely proud to support KSA’s ambitious Vision 2030 through the enhancement of healthcare services and patient outcomes in the kingdom. Today’s announcement is part of our broader commitment to maximizing the accessibility of high-quality healthcare services across the region."

 

"Importantly, the addition of Specialized Day Surgery Centers in KSA complements the recent launch of our PhysioTherabia network and reinforces our strong commitment to patient excellence and aspiration to create a healthier, brighter future for all," he added.

 

The new centres are expected to each generate annual revenue of at least SAR150 to 200 million once fully ramped up. The projected Capex spend is $30-40 million per centre, with $10 to $15 million working capital investment expected per center, he added.

 

CEO John Sunil said: "Today marks another significant step in our KSA expansion plans and further development of Burjeel’s healthcare footprint in the Kingdom. This new asset will allow us to tap into new segments and enhance our services in KSA, resulting in increased revenue and profitability."

 

"The Specialized Day Surgery Center model is one we’re experienced in and will act as a critical cog in our long-term network ambitions in KSA – enhancing the patient experience with sophisticated minimally invasive technology and boosting our relationship with insurance companies by providing them with the most cost-efficient services," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
