Shaista Asif, Group Chief Executive Officer at PureHealth, commented: "PureHealth's first quarter results reflect the solid growth witnessed across all core segments. The Group's results for the period came on the back of strong patient volume increases across our hospital network, both locally and internationally, and continued momentum in our insurance division with high renewal rates and expansion into new markets. Our strong operational execution, transformations of the assets, and the synergies between the entities are delivering tangible results, and strengthening the foundation for future growth. As we look ahead, PureHealth is well-positioned to continue expanding our reach, deepening our platform capabilities, and advancing specialised care to meet the evolving needs of the healthcare sector both in the UAE and internationally."
