On Tuesday, babies Aisha and Hamad became the first babies to be born at Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital (AAH), one of Hamad Medical Corporation’s newest and most advanced hospitals.
The births are part of a soft launch of obstetrics and gynecology services at the hospital which will fully open on Friday 27 September, as AAH continues its expansion of services.
Healthcare teams at AAH supported the successful births of the two babies, each named after the hospital of their birth. Baby Aisha was the first to be born at the hospital and her father, Mr Abdelrahman Ahmad Azem, thanked healthcare teams for their professionalism and compassion. “We are immensely grateful to all the staff at Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital for the care they provided during this special moment in our lives. We are delighted to name our beautiful girl after the hospital of her birth.”
Shortly after the birth of baby Aisha, healthcare teams at AAH welcomed baby Hamad into the world. “We couldn’t be happier with the quality of care we received throughout the birthing process at Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital. The individual private labor rooms provided a welcoming and personalized environment to welcome Hamad into the world said Abdulaziz Said Al Marri, baby Hamad’s father.
“From the moment we arrived we were treated with kindness. When learning of Aisha’s birth and her naming after the hospital, we were delighted to choose the name Hamad to mark this proud moment in our lives.”
Several obstetrics and gynecology services will also transfer from Al Khor Hospital to AAH on 27 September. This relo-cation will allow obstetrics and gynecology services to combine with specialist departments, ensuring access to a wide range of medical interventions, advanced surgeries and specialists for immediate care whenever needed.
Several gynecology outpatient clinics will remain at AKH to support the community and patients will be informed as to the location of their appointment.
From Friday 27 September, HMC’s Ambulance Service will transfer women in labor in the north of Qatar to Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital, instead of Al Khor Hospital. Women going into labor who self-present, should also attend Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital from this date.
