Three new specialised clinics open at Aqaba hospital

AMMAN – Royal Medical Services Director Maj. Gen. Khalaf Sarhan on Thursday inaugurated three specialised clinics at the Prince Hashem Bin Abdullah Hospital in Aqaba Governorate.

During the ceremony, Sarhan noted that the hospital is a comprehensive medical facility that offers all specialisations, including a negative pressure unit for isolation rooms and an oxygen therapy unit, which makes it the only centre to possess such technology in the Middle East.

Murad Momani, the head of the gynaecology unit, noted that the success rate of test tube baby operations performed at the hospital reached 50 per cent.

Established in 2013 under Royal directives, the hospital serves around 1,500 patients a day.
