The dedicated team of Universal<br />

Hospital firmly believes in<br />

'compassionate care'<br />

for all patients<br />

Cardiac Disease, Trauma<br />

and Cancer are the three<br />

leading causes of death in<br />

the UAE says Dr.<br />

Shabbeer Nellikode, DM<br />

(Neurology), DCN, MD,<br />

Managing Director,<br />

Universal Hospitals in<br />

conversation with<br />

MediWorld ME.<br />

Universal Hospital has traversed a long way from<br />

starting 2013 to one of the most reputed Multi-<br />

Specialty Medical Centre in the region can you<br />

throw some light on thisillustrious journey?<br />

Dr. Shabbeer Nellikode after finishing his DM<br />

neurology in India was fortunate to train in UK's<br />

largest Neurology Hospital in England after which<br />

he started Universal Hospital in 2013.This flagship<br />

17 storey tower hospital has now 35 stories of pure<br />

healthcare. With 6 State of the art operating<br />

theaters, A full floor of advanced Radio diagnostic<br />

Equipment including a 1.5 Tesla MRI, A 126 Slice<br />

CT Scanner, Digital Mammogram, Dexa Machine,<br />

an advanced Clinical and Microbiology Lab, we run<br />

70 outpatient clinics seeing an average of 2000<br />

patients a day .The 20 Bed ICU, 14 bed NICU and 10<br />

bed PICU further improve our reach on seeing<br />

complicated and seriously ill patients.<br />

Our core strength has been recruiting physicians<br />

with good clinical skills and ability to work harder<br />

than the average lot. They are dedicated towards<br />

their patients and our hospital alike. This creates a<br />

lot of synergies, cross references and hence very<br />

few missed diagnosis and slipped treatments.<br />
