A team of volunteer doctors and nursing staff in Dubai have been providing free medical check-ups and treatments to over 300 patients every Friday. The humanitarian programme, ‘Healing with Compassion,’ launched by Tadawi Health Group in Dubai during Ramadan, has decided to continue its initiative throughout the year.

Since Ramadan, the programme has treated more than 1,000 needy patients. The group has invited licensed doctors and nursing staff – Emiratis and expatriates – to participate in the initiative, with a total of five regular volunteer doctors now on board.

One of the volunteer doctors, Dr. Shibny Basheer, said: “This initiative immediately captured my attention due to its profound mission of providing free treatment to those who are in need.” She added: “I felt a deep sense of admiration for our hospital’s commitment to improving community health through such a compassionate initiative.”

Another volunteer doctor, Dr. Usman Khan, chose charity work to make a tangible difference in the lives of those in need. He said: “The fulfilment and purpose derived from helping others in need is invaluable and motivates me to continue striving for excellence in my profession.”

Rameshchand Balagovindan, clinic manager, said: “We launched this initiative to make a healthy society and provide healthcare for people who cannot afford it.” He noted that they receive over 300 patients every Friday and have started taking separate appointments for special cases.

“We never say no to any patient,” said Balagovindan, highlighting the programme’s commitment to providing quality healthcare to all those in need.
