It supports the UAE’s strategic healthcare objectives and aligns with the 'We the UAE 2031' vision of establishing the nation as a global leader in medical excellence."

Dr. Khalid Aboedrees, Consultant Plastic Surgeon, highlighted the workshop's role in refining surgical skills, which enhances patient outcomes and boosts healthcare efficiency. He reiterated the hospital's focus on delivering care that meets international standards.

This workshop forms part of the hospital's ongoing professional development initiatives. Future plans include annual training programs such as specialized workshops on burn and wound management and essential surgical skills. Al Qassimi Hospital also aims to integrate advanced microsurgical techniques into its training, promoting innovation and expanding the scope of specialized medical care.
