SAUDI ARABIA—Aster Sanad Hospital in Riyadh, part of the Aster DM Healthcare group, has upgraded its facilities to become a 200-bed multi-speciality hospital, cementing its status as the region’s premier healthcare provider.
The extension enables the hospital to provide top-tier primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment to Saudi Arabian people.
The development is especially crucial given Riyadh’s rapid growth, which raises the demand for accessible, high-quality healthcare.
The growth is consistent with Aster DM Healthcare’s overall plan for Saudi Arabia, which intends to establish its renowned integrated healthcare model within the Kingdom.
It also backs Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and Healthcare Sector Transformation Program, which aim to increase access to excellent healthcare services and the overall health experience for the country’s inhabitants.
The Grand Wing, a premium facility designed to elevate the patient experience with VIP and elegantly furnished single rooms emphasising comfort and tranquilly during recovery, is at the heart of this new expansion.
With this extension, Aster Sanad Hospital now has 200 beds and is backed by eight specialised Centres of Excellence.
These facilities include Bariatric Surgery, Cardiology, Gastroenterology, General Surgery, Neuro and Spine Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine, and Urology and Andrology.
All centres have cutting-edge imaging, laboratory, and physiotherapy facilities, demonstrating the hospital’s commitment to providing world-class care.
In addition to its present services, the hospital has opened a Beauty and Aesthetics centre that provides high-end cosmetic and dermatology treatments.
According to Alisha Moopen, Managing Director and Group CEO of Aster DM Healthcare, this expansion represents another milestone in Aster’s 37-year heritage of clinical and service excellence.

Moreover, Dr Essam Saad Alghamdi, CEO of Aster Sanad Hospital, emphasised the importance of this development, stating that it allows the hospital to service a larger patient population while improving the entire patient experience.
The hospital’s recently opened state-of-the-art Dialysis Unit, outfitted with ten modern machines, can treat up to 30 patients each day, providing much-needed care to people suffering from renal disease.

The hospital remains a significant regional healthcare provider, with 45 medical specialities and a workforce of 160 doctors, 410 nurses, and 350 professionals serving patients from over 30 countries.
It is approved by the Saudi Central Board of Accreditation for Healthcare Organisations (CBAHI) and serves a diverse spectrum of insurance companies and government agencies.
