- Experts to deliver educational sessions at annual healthcare conference.
Experts from Cleveland Clinic’s international locations will share strategies for healthcare excellence and insights into innovative treatments and medical research at World Health Expo Dubai (WHX Dubai), formerly Arab Health, in the Middle East’s largest healthcare event, taking place from 9 to 12 of February.
Cleveland Clinic’s participation underscores the collaborative nature of Cleveland Clinic’s global operations, with facilities in the U.S., Canada, U.K., and U.A.E. working together to advance patient care, medical education, and research. Cleveland Clinic’s international footprint now includes 23 hospitals and more than 280 outpatient facilities, alongside a growing network of global patient representatives connecting with patients across 17 countries, and strategic relationships with hospitals in Chile, Croatia, Mexico, Vietnam and Uzbekistan.
“Cleveland Clinic’s global network continues to evolve as we introduce new models of care and expand our ability to support patients across continents,” said Tommaso Falcone, M.D., executive vice president and president of International and Emerging Markets at Cleveland Clinic. “WHX Dubai brings together forward-thinking clinicians and healthcare organizations, and it’s an ideal setting to highlight the innovative work happening across our system and to learn from others who share our commitment to advancing care delivery.”
Now in its 50th year, WHX Dubai continues to attract healthcare professionals from around the world, thanks in part to its robust Continuing Medical Education (CME) program. Cleveland Clinic will feature a delegation of clinical and operational leaders across WHX Dubai and WHX Labs Dubai, presenting on advanced therapies, surgical innovation, laboratory leadership, antimicrobial stewardship, women in leadership, and healthcare ESG.
Every year, thousands of patients travel to Cleveland Clinic for complex care unavailable in their home countries. This care is coordinated by the Global Patient Services team, which ensures cultural sensitivity and personalized support. Cleveland Clinic’s workforce of over 83,000 caregivers includes salaried physicians, researchers, nurses, and advanced practice providers across 140 specialties and subspecialties.
