The Department at Tawam Hospital is the only clinical Department in the UAE that provides the whole spectrum of services in the fields described with full provision of all subspecialties. A number of the Units are regarded as being particularly meritorious in view of unique contributions to patient care in the UAE. |
These include the renowned Fertility (IVF) Unit, the Fetal Medicine Unit and Gynecological Oncology Unit. The number of procedures undertaken and outcomes are documented in the submission and there is no doubt e.g. that the quoted outcomes for e.g. IVF are of the highest international standards.
In the IVF Unit national staff members are currently being mentored with training for assisted reproduction and encouraged in research activity. Standards of care are facilitated by the conduct of several multidisciplinary clinicics/meetings involving Pathology/Cytology, Radiology, Medical Genetics/Counselling and Medical Oncology. A Tumour Board meeting is held wherein complex cases can be discussed and management strategy determined. |
