Free health checkups, games and activities, bouncy castles and magician shows were amongst the merriment of activities available for children and families alike. At the same time, Health Plus physicians and medical team mingled with the guests offering their expert advice on key matters concerning general and dental patient care.

Following the inauguration, members from Al Dar Properties toured the Health Center and looked at the different medical services that are provided to their residents. It is worth mentioning that Al Bandar Residential Community is one of Al Raha Beach projects by Al Dar Development.

“We were very touched by the warm welcome extended to the HealthPlus Family Health Center by Al Raha community and the neighborhoods nearby. We strategically wanted to support its population’s healthcare requirements whilst at the same time build on our mission to improve long-term health, with a focus on disease prevention,” said Mr. Mohammed Ali Al Shorafa Al Hammadi.

“I am delighted to be present today and be part of HealthPlus Family Day celebration. Partnerships with renowned Healthcare developers like UEMedical, help us to continue to set high living standards for our residents providing advanced healthcare within the community,” said Mr. Talal Al Dhiyebi.

Mr. Abu Zant further stated, “We are very excited to be progressing so quickly in line with our vision to drastically improve the medical services on offer in the region. Since our soft opening in November 2011, we have already seen 600 patients, which clearly indicates that there is a strong public demand for our services within this district.”
