Aisha and Hamad became the first babies to be born at Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital (AAH), one of Hamad Medical Corporation’s (HMC) newest and most advanced hospitals. The births on September 17 are part of a soft launch of obstetrics and gynaecology services at the hospital which will fully open on September 27. Healthcare teams at AAH supported the births of the two babies, each named after the hospital of their birth.
Baby Aisha was the first to be born at the hospital and her father, Abdelrahman Ahmad Azem, thanked healthcare teams for their professionalism and compassion. “We are immensely grateful to all the staff at Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital for the care they provided during this special moment in our lives. We are delighted to name our beautiful girl after the hospital of her birth.
” Shortly after the birth of baby Aisha, healthcare teams at AAH welcomed baby Hamad. “We couldn’t be happier with the quality of care we received throughout the birthing process at Aisha Bint Hamad Al Attiyah Hospital. The individual private labour rooms provided a welcoming and personalised environment to welcome Hamad into the world," said Abdulaziz Said al-Marri, baby Hamad’s father.
“From the moment we arrived we were treated with kindness. When learning of Aisha’s birth and her naming after the hospital, we were delighted to choose the name Hamad to mark this proud moment in our lives.” Several obstetrics and gynaecology services will also transfer .
