UAE-based private healthcare provider Burjeel Holdings has received approval from its board of directors to open two day surgery centres in Saudi Arabia.
The specialised day surgery centres are expected to open by next year and will be located in Saudi Arabia’s capital city, Riyadh.
They will offer complex, minimally invasive services in various specialities, including orthopaedics, oncology, neurology and advanced gynaecology.
Burjeel will own and operate the facilities, which are each expected to deliver annual revenue of between SAR150m ($39.9m) and SAR200m ($53.3m) when fully operational.
The projected capital expenditure for each centre is estimated at $30m to $40m, while each facility’s working capital investment is projected to be between $10m and $15m.
The introduction of these internationally affiliated centres is part of Burjeel’s efforts to provide customers in Saudi Arabia with access to advanced services, including robotics solutions.
