Burjeel to expand presence in Saudi healthcare with PhysioTrio acquisition

Burjeel Holdings has fully acquired the Riyadh-based PhysioTrio Physiotherapy Centre to expand its presence in Saudi Arabia's healthcare sector. Carried out via its subsidiary Burjeel Arabia, the acquisition is set to enhance the company's physiotherapy and rehabilitation services within the region. PhysioTrio was established in 2013 and will be integrated into Burjeel's PhysioTherabia network. The centre focuses on sports rehabilitation and maintaining partnerships, including contracts with the Saudi Ministry of Sport. This positions Burjeel to provide specialised sports rehabilitation services to athletes and active individuals throughout the region. Burjeel Holdings co-CEO Safeer Ahamed said: 'The acquisition of PhysioTrio expands our footprint in the Kingdom and aligns with our vision to elevate access to high-quality, specialised physiotherapy and wellness services. 'Through this integration, we are accelerating our efforts to support the Kingdom's healthcare transformation and the goals of Vision 2030.' With this strategic purchase, PhysioTherabia now operates 30 facilities in the country, including Mecca's Specialist Physiotherapy Centre and eight further facilities in Riyadh. The addition is expected to enable PhysioTherabia to scale the facility's services, optimise operations, and meet the healthcare requirements of the local community. The integration will also ensure consistent care and grant access to centralised protocols, AI-powered assessment tools, and standardised training programmes. Burjeel Holdings KSA regional CEO Abdulmohsen Al Ashry said: 'This expansive network provides a solid foundation to elevate the services of the newly integrated facility, enabling the delivery of advanced rehabilitation programmes and strengthening access to high-quality physiotherapy care across the region.' The latest move is part of Burjeel's broader strategy in Saudi Arabia, which includes the recent integration of Riyadh-based mental health service provider Aspris Healthcare via its joint venture Alkalma. Burjeel is also expanding its presence in digital health, day surgery, and complex care delivery, contributing to the healthcare goals of Saudi Arabia. In a related development last month, Burjeel Holdings purchased the Medeor 24x7 Hospital building in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, in a Dh170m ($46.28m) deal.

10 UAE Nurses Surprised with Brand-New SUVs Ahead of International Nurses Day

In a heartfelt celebration and a unique gesture of gratitude, ten frontline healthcare professionals were honored with a life-changing surprise. In a special event organized by Burjeel Holdings, kickstarting the International Nurses Day celebrations, these healthcare heroes from across the Group's hospitals and medical centers were presented with a brand-new Toyota RAV4, a gesture of gratitude that left recipients and onlookers deeply moved. The Driving Force Award, an initiative celebrating nursing excellence, acknowledged the compassion, perseverance, and emotional labor that define the nursing profession. With senior leadership, colleagues, and families present, the moment captured the spirit of appreciation for those who work quietly, tirelessly, and with heart. The car keys were handed over by Mr. John Sunil, Group CEO, and Mr. Safeer Ahamed, Group Co-CEO of Burjeel Holdings. In the run-up to International Nurses Day, the Group will go on to honor 100 more exemplary nurses from across its hospitals and medical centers with cash prizes.'We often talk about excellence in numbers, metrics, and outcomes. But true nursing excellence lives in the quiet hands that comfort, the voices that reassure, and the hearts that keep hope alive. The Driving Force Award is our way of saying: we see you; we value you. And we're deeply grateful,' said John Sunil, Group CEO of Burjeel All AroundFor Mei Alegre, a Filipino Nurse Manager at Burjeel Hospital, Abu Dhabi, the moment was surreal. A nurse with nine years of service at Burjeel, she arrived believing she was simply participating in an International Nurses Day event.'I thought I was just coming to speak about my experience,' she said through tears. 'Never in my life did I imagine this. I've always loved my job, but to be appreciated like this — it's overwhelming.'Reflecting on her journey, she shared, 'Even though I've transitioned into a managerial position, many of my former patients still recognize me. In those moments, I feel a deep sense of pride knowing that the care I provided made a lasting difference.'For Soher Mohammed Ahmed Ali, an Egyptian Nursing Educator at Medeor Hospital, Abu Dhabi, the recognition carried deep personal meaning. Having lost her father to cancer, she dedicated her life to supporting others. 'I couldn't help my father, but maybe I can help others through what I do,' she said, adding, 'When patients or their families pray for me, when they say a quiet dua. That's more than enough. That's everything.'The recognition, she says, felt deeply personal. 'Being a nurse is part of who I am. This award reminds me that our presence and our care truly matter.'Nabil Mohamed Ikbal, a registered nurse at Lifecare Hospital, Baniyas, described the moment as 'unreal.' With four years in the system, the Indian nurse saw the moment as a meaningful symbol of validation. He recalled one of his proudest moments — leading the resuscitation of a patient who had been without pulse or breath for over 20 minutes. 'We continued CPR for 50 minutes. Everyone thought there was no hope. But the patient came back. That's the kind of team I have. That's the kind of profession nursing is.'Recognizing the Quiet Heroes of HealthcareThe other winners included Mohammed Hamid Taher from Jordan and Mark Darrel Manalo De La Cruz from the Philippines, and Ani M. Jose, Archanakumari Viswanatha Panicker, Priyanka Devi Kaleeswaran, Sibi Mathew, and Vishnuprasad Sasthamkovil from leaders, family members, colleagues, and patients came together to celebrate stories that often go unnoticed. The evening was a tribute to those who go above and beyond, shift after shift. Winners were selected after months of assessments across Burjeel units. The unit-level committees reviewed the nurses' performance, community service, and patient impact, before forwarding final nominations to a central jury. The outcome was kept completely confidential, making the final reveal a true surprise.
