Preventive Medicine Program

Overview

Preventive medicine is the practice of promoting a patient centered approach to health to identify patients who have risk factors for disease and use proven methods to prevent, treat and reverse chronic diseases. From the individual patient to entire communities and populations, preventive medicine is an interdisciplinary practice in which specialists explore a range of factors which may influence our health. In the UAE, chronic diseases that are related to preventable lifestyle factors, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer, are extremely prevalent and are the leading cause of death. These diseases continue to not only impact our healthcare services but also the quality of life of our people.
