Burjeel to Expand into IVF, Enhancing its Comprehensive Women and Children Care Portfolio

As part of its strategy to expand women and children healthcare services, Burjeel Holdings PLC (“Burjeel” or “the Group”), a leading super-specialty healthcare provider in the MENA region, listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (SYMBOL: BURJEEL; ISIN: AEE01119B224), has announced plans to launch IVF services. The Group’s comprehensive portfolio already includes advanced gynecology, fetal medicine, and pediatric subspecialties. With the addition of IVF, Burjeel aims to offer an integrated approach to women’s healthcare, ensuring a continuum of care for women at all stages of life.

360-Degree Care for Women

The integration of IVF services will complement the Group’s existing expertise in advanced gynecology, fetal medicine, and pediatric sub-specialties, offering women a seamless journey from conception to delivery. The Trust Fertility Clinic at Burjeel Medical City (BMC), the flagship facility of Burjeel Holdings, will further strengthen the Group’s offering, addressing fertility challenges and enabling women to receive all necessary care under one roof. BMC is already home to several renowned centers, including the IFEM Endo Middle East Clinic, the Advanced Gynecology Institute, the Kypros Nicolaides Fetal Medicine and Therapy Center, and the state-of-art Obstetrics and Gynecology department. With dedicated Neonatal and Pediatric Intensive Care Units (NICU and PICU), the hospital ensures the highest standards of care for both maternal and newborn health.

Mr. John Sunil, Chief Executive Officer of Burjeel Holdings, said: “The UAE In-Vitro Fertilization market is experiencing rapid growth and transformation, reflecting social trends and advances in reproductive technologies. The addition of fertility services not only strengthens our comprehensive women’s healthcare portfolio but also positions us to meet the growing demand in the region. We are dedicated to providing world-class, personalized care that utilizes the latest technological advancements. This expansion reflects our commitment to leading the region in holistic women’s health services, empowering patients with the best possible care on their journey to parenthood.”

The Trust Fertility Clinic will be the largest fertility center in the UAE, providing state-of-the-art fertility treatments. Leading the center will be Dr. Walid Sayed, a pioneering expert in reproductive endocrinology and infertility with more than 29 years of experience.
