Doha, Qatar: The Qatar Financial Centre (QFC), a leading onshore financial and business centre in the region, and The View Hospital, a modern healthcare institution dedicated to world-class clinical excellence, held a day-long wellness event to provide free medical consultations to QFC employees. 

The initiative marks a collaborative effort stemming from the memorandum of understanding between QFC and Elegancia Healthcare, the managing entity of The View Hospital, to advance healthcare innovation and foster a culture of wellness in Qatar.

Consultants in Family Medicine, Vascular Medicine, and Mental Wellness from the prestigious healthcare institution visited the QFC to provide health assessments to more than 50 individuals seeking medical advice. The check-ups covered a range of medical concerns, from acute, chronic, and preventive care to issues concerning vascular health. Consultations were also conducted to address mental well-being, such as stress reduction, maintaining work-life balance, enhancing sleep quality, anxiety management, and mindfulness.

Yousuf Mohamed Al Jaida, Chief Executive Officer, QFC, commented on the value of the event, stating: “We are truly happy to host an event that promotes wellness among our employees and grateful for our collaboration with The View Hospital medical team, who generously shared their expertise with us. This initiative is a simple example of how partnerships with shared goals can lead to meaningful outcomes. I anticipate launching further collaborative projects with The View Hospital and Elegancia Healthcare that not only promote the importance of health but also contribute to the advancement of the healthcare sector.”

From a healthcare standpoint, Matthew Dronsfield, Chief Executive Officer, The View Hospital, said: “We are honored to collaborate with the Qatar Financial Centre on this wellness initiative. At The View Hospital, we are dedicated to delivering exceptional healthcare services and promoting holistic well-being. This event demonstrates our commitment to making world-class medical expertise accessible to the community. By offering comprehensive health assessments and consultations, we aim to foster a culture of wellness and preventive care. We look forward to future collaborations that will further advance healthcare innovation and enhance the quality of life for individuals in Qatar.”
