Dubai: Zulekha Hospital launches post-covid Assessment and Recovery Clinic


Media Release

Dubai, Nov 5: Zulekha Hospital launched its post-covid Assessment and Recovery Clinic in UAE. Healthcare providers globally are seeing the need to identify and assess the various post-covid effects on an individual which could be physical or mental, and address these medical needs with innovative services.

At Zulekha Hospital Dubai and Sharjah specifically, the clinic offers pulmonary-focused, multidisciplinary evaluation and care for patients who have recovered, but are battling mid and long-term persistent effects of the infection. Individuals who have recovered from COVID-19 may report to specialists with prolonged symptoms of breathlessness, chest pain, joint aches, memory loss and anxiety. Such patients must undergo an overall assessment to ensure complete diagnosis, treatment and recovery. A complete assessment is done by the pulmonologist to check for any lasting infections causing other ailments and subsequently referred to other specialists for further treatment depending on the diagnosis. The treatment may vary in individuals and can include, counselling, physical therapy and/or occupational therapy if need be.

Zulekha Hospital facilities in Dubai and Sharjah have multidisciplinary services and specialists under one roof. The telemedicine services are also available to patients choosing to consult doctors online. For investigations, patients can visit the hospital without any fear of infections as the facilities follow strict infection control protocols and social distancing measures, ensuring the safety of the patients and the staff.

Speaking about the need for such a clinic, managing director, Taher Shams said, “The world is overwhelmed by the impact of the pandemic. Individuals will take time to get back to normalcy post covid, and need the right advice and mental support at this time. We are enabling these services through this assessment clinic that can ensure a complete recovery and restoration, and assure our patrons that they will have easy access to medical services at this hour of need.”

Continuously educating masses on mental well-being, immunity-boosting methods, early detection and prevention of diseases, and physical fitness, the hospital carries out various activities as well as awareness webinar sessions for groups of individuals regularly.
