Mayo Clinic has launched its redesigned Arabic website, mayoclinic.org/arabic, which offers Arabic speakers easier access to important resources, like details for requesting an appointment, international services and patient testimonies.

“The redesigned site will better serve Arabic-speaking patients and their families who may be considering medical care at Mayo Clinic,” said Mikel Prieto, M D, medical director for international operations. “Access to quality health care is a desire that unites us all worldwide. Mayo Clinic is committed to ensuring that language is not an obstacle to receiving world-class care.”

The redesigned website enables patients to request an appointment and obtain information about treatment costs, a statement from the clinic said. Visitors can also learn about Mayo Clinic's free international services, including language translation services, available to all patients.

Mayo Clinic Connection, a newsletter for international patients and friends of Mayo Clinic, is published quarterly and available in Arabic. This newsletter showcases clinical specialties, patient stories, research briefs and news bulletins. – TradeArabia News Service
