"Al Jalila Children's is ideal for receiving advanced knowledge and paediatrics training. It is the only hospital dedicated to treating children and adolescents. Together with MBRU, we are now part of the Dubai Academic Health Corporation, an integrated academic health system that has set one of its strategic pillars as delivering transformative education and a future-ready workforce. Through these offerings, we ensure that individuals who apply will receive training on par with advanced global practices," added Dr. Al Awadhi.
