Doha, Qatar: Hamad Medical Corporation’s (HMC) Heart Hospital has expanded its use of surgical robots incoronary artery bypass grafting (Robotic CABG) surgeries. Robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting surgeries aim to enhance natural blood flow to the heart muscle and offer a less invasive and more precise alternative to traditional procedures, enabling faster recovery and reducing the risk of complications for patients.

The advanced surgeries are performed under the supervision of a specialized surgical team that includes Dr. Abdulwahid AlMulla, Senior Consultant and Head of the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department at Heart Hospital, alongside Dr. Ali Kindawi, Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon; Dr. Mohamed Latif Wani, Consultant Cardiothoracic Surgeon; and Dr. Mohamed AlKahlout, Specialist Cardiothoracic Surgeon.

Dr. Abdulwahid Al Mulla said: “Heart Hospital has introduced minimally invasive techniques for coronary artery bypass and mitral valve surgeries to ensure the delivery of high-quality healthcare services to patients in Qatar and to remain at the forefront of global surgical advancements. This aligns with HMC’s Healthcare Strategy 2024-2030, the National Health Strategy 2024-2030, and Qatar National Vision 2030.”

“Integrating advanced technologies like robotics into cardiothoracic surgeries significantly improves patient experience, shortens the patient’s recovery time, and minimizes complications. Patients are carefully selected for these procedures based on their health status to ensure suitability for this type of surgery and optimal patient outcomes,” added Dr. Al Mulla.
