(DUBAI) - H.E.
Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al
Nahyan, Cabinet Member and

Coexistence, honored a
select group of the UAE’s
healthcare pioneers who were
recognized at “Health
Awards 2025,” during a
ceremony held at the Grand
Hyatt Dubai that drew a
large turnout of
professionals, policymakers,
and innovators. The ceremony
recognized 78 healthcare
professionals across 60
competitive categories
spanning patient care,
scientific research,
education, technology, and
community impact, with more
than 700 healthcare
professionals in attendance.
The event was also attended

In
his remarks at the ceremony,
H.E. Sheikh Nahyan
bin Mubarak said:
“I am pleased to be with you
this morning for the
presentation of the ‘Health
Awards 2025’ to some of the
most accomplished and
dedicated professionals in
the field of healthcare. We
are grateful to Dr. Thumbay
Moideen and his team at
Thumbay Media for organizing
this important celebration
so ably, and we are indebted
to the award winners, whose
compassion, talent, and
skill inspire us all. I
thank each of you for
promoting excellence in
healthcare—a field both
complex and fast-evolving,
where the quality of care
determines not only healthy
lives but often life
itself.”
He added:
“These awards recognize not
only achievements in health
and medicine, but also the
enduring values of
dedication, commitment, and
excellence, as well as the
power to inspire current and
future generations of
healthcare professionals. I
fully support the principle
at the heart of these
awards: that the health of
the people is the foundation
upon which a successful
society is built; that
excellence in this field has
a profound impact on our
lives; and that no national
asset is more valuable than
a healthy population.”
He continued: “As in
previous cycles, this fifth
edition—held here in
Dubai—reflects the UAE’s
steadfast commitment to
advancing healthcare
standards and adopting best
practices across all fields
of medicine. The broad
representation of both
nationals and residents
among today’s winners is a
testament to the strength of
our healthcare enterprise
and the robustness of its
partnerships.”
He
affirmed: “Under the
directives of His Highness
the President, Sheikh
Mohammed bin Zayed Al
Nahyan—may God preserve
him—and with strong support
from His Highness Sheikh
Mohammed bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, Vice President,
Prime Minister, and Ruler of
Dubai, the United Arab
Emirates has built a
healthcare system that
responds to the needs of
individuals and of the wider
community alike. As a
result, people are confident
that they receive the
highest standards of care
and that they are empowered
to make sound decisions
about their health. In this
spirit, we celebrate our
winners today for their
distinguished contributions
to the well-being of
society; each has shown
initiative in pursuing
excellence and has a notable
record of achievement.”
He concluded:
“Congratulations to all the
award winners. I wish you
continued success.
Perseverance and the pursuit
of one’s full potential are
vital elements that give
meaning to life; through
your work, we celebrate the
brilliance of the human
spirit—its resilience,
focus, and creative power.
Once again, my warmest
congratulations and best
wishes to each of you.”
