Al Daayen Medical City will be the most modern in the world with its advanced medical facilities and contents

Located on a 1.3 million square meter site between Qatar University and the new city of Lusail, Al Daayen Hospital offers a new coexistence between architecture and medical sciences, containing a Class III teaching hospital, women, and children’s hospital, and a mobile diagnostic center, with a total capacity of 1,200 beds.

Medical facilities occupy the first floor, and family suites are located on the first floor; This reduces reliance on elevators and allows patients to enjoy the complex's extensive gardens, which are treatment spaces with a long history in Islamic medical architecture. The prefab modular cross-shaped units can be reconfigured and expanded on-site; This significantly reduces the cost of future adaptations.
