Al Rawdah German Medical Center in Abu Dhabi has teamed up with German health-care provider Asklepios to ensure a continued quality of care both within Abu Dhabi and in Europe.

The partnership will enable patients from Al Rawdah German Medical Center to be transferred to Germany for specialized care with minimal fuss.

Managing Director for Al Rawdah German Medical Center, Dr. Hans-Poessel stated that the add-on service for patients would result in a decrease in administration as the doctors at the Centre and in Germany would assist each other in providing quality care to the patient.

"Al Rawdah German Medical Center and Asklepios will be able to take care of all the patient needs from travel to choosing the best hospital for the patient's specific circumstances."

"We can even assist with recommending where loved ones of the patient can stay in Germany to be close to the preferred medical facility."

Asklepios has been operating for over 25 years and has a national network of approximately 100 emergency hospitals, rehabilitation clinics, nursing homes, private practices and medical centers.

"With a focus on providing state-of-the-art German medical services, it made sense to partner with Asklepios in order to maximize the benefits for our patients," Dr Poessel said.

"With this partnership we can ensure consistent high level medical care for our patients, through a seamless medical supply chain, enabling the translation of medical information easily and most importantly, quality patient treatment which can continue back in Abu Dhabi."

German standards of healthcare have been recognized in the United Arab Emirates as being efficient, safe and reasonably priced and Al Rawdah German Medical Center is proud to be able to provide this service to its patients, thereby providing a holistic approach to healthcare in Abu Dhabi.
