It gives me immense pleasure to announce Dubai Bone and Joint Centrer's participation

by hundreds of eminent and internationally acclaimed speakers and will be attended
by some of the leading medical and health experts from across the globe.

Furthermore,
DBAJ is the platinum sponsor of the Orthopaedic Conference, one of the 18 conferences

Our Medical Director, Dr. Maarten Spruit has been appointed as the Chairman of the

The Arab Health exhibition and congress is the region's premier event bringing healthcare

important and influential decision-makers in the Arab world. Generally viewed as
a must attend global event in the healthcare calendar more than 5,500 delegates
and visitors attended the congress last year and this year's edition is expected
to supersede expectations.
I would therefore like to invite all our partner organizations and members of the
medical fraternity to be part of this very important event and take advantage of
this opportunity to learn, share your experiences and network with some of the most
important personalities of the medical world.
We look forward to your presence at Arab Health 2009.
