Khoula Hospital Ramped Up Surgeries and Scans for Faster Care

Big news for patients and healthcare fans: Khoula Hospital just turned up the dial on its medical services, rolling out ambitious plans to boost both surgeries and MRI scans. The hospital’s latest moves are already making waves, promising shorter waits and more smiles all around.

Leaders celebrated new milestones

The grand launch event, hosted by Dr Hilal bin Ali al Sabti, Oman’s Minister of Health, brought together medical pros and community members in Muscat. The hospital’s team looked back on a year packed with progress, including a whopping 2,198 successful surgeries. That’s not just a number—it meant waiting lists shrank by half, giving patients a much speedier path to recovery.

MRI scans reached record highs

Last year, the hospital set a bold goal: perform 12,000 MRI scans. Not only did they hit that target, they zoomed past it, completing 13,566 scans! With 45 to 50 scans happening every single day, the waiting time for an MRI plummeted from a jaw-dropping 16 months to just three to five days. That’s a game-changer for anyone needing quick answers about their health.
