Ajman: Thumbay University Hospital has officially launched the Thumbay Institute of Neurosciences, a dedicated center aimed at diagnosing and treating complex conditions affecting the brain, spine, and nervous system.

The inauguration ceremony was led by Dr. Thumbay Moideen, alongside senior healthcare leaders and distinguished guests from across the network. Among those in attendance was Dr. Abdul Karim Msaddi, who attended as Chief Guest.

The new institute marks a significant step forward for the hospital, reinforcing its reputation as a leading academic medical center in the region and expanding the scope of advanced neuroscience care available in the UAE.

Speaking at the launch, Akbar Moideen Thumbay highlighted the importance of integrated care in tackling neurological disorders. He noted that such conditions demand not only precision and speed but also a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach — something the new institute aims to deliver under one roof.

What the Institute Offers
The institute brings together a team of neurosurgeons, neurologists, interventional radiologists, neuro-technicians, and rehabilitation specialists to provide a full spectrum of care. From common neurological conditions such as stroke, epilepsy, and migraines to more complex disorders like Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and Alzheimer’s, patients will have access to advanced diagnostic tools including EEG, EMG, nerve conduction studies, and neuro-imaging.

On the surgical front, the facility is equipped to handle intricate brain and spine procedures, including tumor removal, treatment of vascular abnormalities, and management of traumatic injuries. Minimally invasive techniques, supported by neuronavigation systems and intraoperative monitoring, are expected to enhance precision and patient outcomes.

Technology-Driven Rehabilitation
A key highlight of the institute is its emphasis on technology-driven rehabilitation. Patients will benefit from advanced therapies such as robotic-assisted rehabilitation, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Additional services like gait analysis, motion tracking, and exoskeleton-assisted therapy aim to support recovery, helping patients regain mobility and independence.

The institute also follows a structured care pathway, ensuring patients receive timely and appropriate treatment — with neurologists managing non-surgical cases and neurosurgeons stepping in when intervention is necessary.

With this launch, Thumbay University Hospital is positioning itself at the forefront of neuroscience care, offering patients across the region access to integrated, high-quality treatment options closer to home.
