In an announcement that represents a key sector milestone, Dubai Healthcare City (DHCC), Dubai’s healthcare and wellness free zone ecosystem, announced the launch of C37 – a private medical workspace zone designed for visiting overseas doctors or UAE-based physicians seeking an independent, part-time practice.
A first-of-its-kind initiative in the GCC, the innovative new platform offers visiting doctors a gateway to a regional population that values quality care and easy access to more than 200 nationalities that call the UAE home, while giving doctors based in the country greater mobility and connectivity with their patients and peers.
It will also give patients in the UAE direct access to an even larger pool of leading regional and global specialists in various fields of medicine, right at their doorstep in Dubai Healthcare City.
C37 provides a 360-degree approach to clinical operations so that doctors can focus on their core services and provide optimum quality care. The initiative also serves as a platform for knowledge and expertise exchange with medical peers and future doctors coming together to form a like-minded, next-generation community that can thrive through networking and referral opportunities.
C37 provides cost-effective, customised, and state-of-the-art medical co-working spaces and services. Visiting doctors will benefit from full-service set-up, ranging from visa processing and licensing to special discounts on travel and accommodation, and the opportunity to network and collaborate with more than 160-plus clinics and hospitals within the DHCC ecosystem.
Similarly, UAE-based doctors can launch their own independent workspace, safe in the knowledge that operational set-up and management is taken care of.
Access to C37 is via membership. Physicians who sign up will benefit from front-desk booking services, as well as operational support including onsite management guidance with comprehensive resources, including strategic consulting, accounting, banking, legal, and marketing services.
Members will be able to secure their workspace on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, giving doctors the flexibility to align with patient needs and drastically reduce overheads by accessing flexible medical staffing and equipment solutions. They pay only for the staff they need and can scale staff up or down in line with patient demand.
