In a significant move that highlights its expanding presence across Saudi Arabia, Burjeel Holdings PLC, a leading super-specialty healthcare provider in the MENA region, listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, has announced the acquisition of a 100% stake in the Specialist Physiotherapy Center, a premier healthcare facility in Makkah, through its subsidiary, Burjeel KSA.

We look forward to enhancing the center’s capabilities and introducing new services as part of our ongoing efforts to provide innovative and comprehensive care to our patients.”

The Group plans to activate new programs, including pediatric and neuro rehabilitation services, and introduce advanced technologies such as a cryo chamber and the David System for physiotherapy. The integration of these services will further establish the center as a premier destination for rehabilitation in the Kingdom.
The acquisition also aligns with the Group’s broader objective to contribute to the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 by supporting the healthcare sector’s growth and enhancing its global competitiveness.
