(MENAFN) Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC) is dedicated to enhancing patient access to healthcare and minimizing wait times for medical services. As part of this commitment, the Department of Dermatology and Venereology has introduced extended outpatient clinic hours every Wednesday since September 2022. This initiative aims to provide patients with increased convenience and timely care.
Under the leadership of Professor Martin Steinhoff, Chairman of the Department of Dermatology and Venereology, the extended hours clinic at Rumailah Hospital operates from 3pm to 7pm on Wednesdays. During this time, two experienced dermatologists are available to attend to patients' needs. These extended hours complement the regular outpatient timings, which run from 7.30am to 2.45pm Sunday through Thursday.
The decision to introduce extended clinic hours was driven by the desire to offer patients more flexibility in scheduling their outpatient appointments. By providing the option of evening appointments on Wednesdays, patients have greater convenience and increased access to dermatology services. The initiative has received positive feedback from patients who appreciate the added flexibility and reduced waiting times.
The Department of Dermatology and Venereology at HMC is committed to delivering high-quality care to patients with dermatological and venereal conditions. By extending clinic hours, the department aims to ensure that patients receive timely and comprehensive treatment. The availability of additional consultation slots during the extended hours clinic enables more patients to be seen and treated promptly.
This initiative aligns with HMC's ongoing efforts to enhance patient-centered care and improve the overall patient experience. By implementing extended clinic hours, HMC continues to prioritize accessibility and responsiveness, ensuring that patients' healthcare needs are met efficiently and effectively.
