Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers globally, and the UAE is no exception. According to the Global Cancer Observatory, breast cancer accounts for 21 percent of all diagnosed cancers in the region. "Its crucial for women to be reminded annually of the importance of regular check-ups to prevent further complications," said Dr. Manvir Singh, CEO of Thumbay Healthcare. "The Pink Human Ribbon has the potential to raise awareness, particularly among the younger generation, about the importance of taking care of their health and staying informed about evolving treatment options."

Since its inauguration, the Thumbay Advanced Cancer Center has established itself as a vital resource for cancer care in the UAE. Located within Thumbay University Hospital in Thumbay Medicity, Al Jurf, Ajman, this facility is part of Thumbay Healthcare, the largest private academic healthcare network in the country. Equipped with advanced technology, the center provides a range of specialized services, including private chemotherapy suites, dedicated specialty clinics, and a breast cancer unit. Each feature has been designed with patient comfort and care in mind, ensuring high-quality treatment for individuals facing cancer.

"Breast cancer is among the few cancers that can be identified early without invasive methods, and when detected early, patients have a 98 percent likelihood of recovery," stated Akbar Moideen Thumbay, Vice President of Thumbay Healthcare. He concluded, "We aspire for this initiative, through unconventional platforms, to connect with the UAE community and motivate other groups to initiate discussions about breast cancer within their own networks."
