In May 2009 an agreement was entered into with the Ministry of Health in the United Arab Emirates regarding the setting up and running of a clinic with the focus on the treatment of diabetes and obesity. The first obesity operations have already been performed and the doctors' office for diabetes patients has started.

“The occurrence of obesity and diabetes is very high in the Middle East. Scientific studies have shown that obesity operations have a very positive effect on diabetes as well, and through this unique clinic Global Health Partner has now gained the opportunity to be in the forefront with regard to the evaluation of this,” says Per Båtelson, Global Health Partner’s CEO.
