Thumbay opens welcome centre at Sharjah airport

SHARJAH, February 6, 2016

Thumbay Medical Tourism (TMT), the award-winning medical tourism initiative of UAE-basec Thumbay Group, has opened its welcome centre at the Sharjah International Airport.

The kiosk, which is a first of its kind in the UAE, is intended to welcome medical tourists from different countries and provide them information on wellness checkups as well as TMT’s wide range of surgeries and treatments across all the major specialties offered by the group's network of academic hospitals, said a statement from the company.

The new centre was launched in the presence of Akbar Moideen Thumbay, the vice president of the healthcare division and Dr Benazir Ameer Ali, the director of Thumbay International Medical and Health Tourism Department.

Located within the airport, the kiosk acts as a facilitation centre for medical tourists visiting the country through Sharjah International Airport, and will be their first point of contact, taking care of all their needs right from when they disembark, said a senior official.

"A medical tourism welcome center within an airport is a new concept implemented by Thumbay Group. Apart from taking care of the needs of medical tourists, it will also act as an information kiosk for prospective customers passing through the airport," said Thumbay.

"More such centres are being planned at the other airports in the UAE as well," he stated.

Dr Ali said that the newly opened kiosk was the latest of TMT’s constant efforts to further upgrade and improve its services.

“The ultramodern infrastructure, excellent care and warm hospitality of Thumbay Group’s hospitals has already made them the popular choice of medical tourists. We aim to emerge as the ultimate medical tourism health partner in the country,” she added.-TradeArabia News Service
