Hôtel-Dieu de France launches its new medical Center in Antelias

As part of its public health mission and commitment to medical excellence, Hôtel-Dieu de France officially launched its new Medical Center in Antelias on Tuesday, July 23, 2024. This strategic opening reflects a clear intent to expand access to high-quality specialized care closer to patients.

The ceremony was held in the presence of Mr. Nassib Nasr, Director General of the USJ-HDF Hospital Network. Several medical and administrative leaders from Hôtel-Dieu de France also attended the event.

In his speech, Mr. Nassib Nasr stated:
"Today marks our first official visit to the new Antelias Medical Center, the first Hôtel-Dieu de France facility located outside the Achrafieh district. This center began operating on November 1, 2024. Since then, it has been fully equipped with modern infrastructure, staffed with trained nursing and administrative teams, and all physicians wishing to practice here have been duly registered.

The value of this center lies in its ability to facilitate access to care while relieving pressure and patient load at the main hospital, particularly for laboratory tests, medical examinations, and consultations. Given the current traffic challenges, this facility represents a major step forward in bringing medical services closer to patients, easing their travel burdens, and saving time and energy.

The opening of the Antelias Center marks the beginning of a broader project, with additional centers planned soon, including one in Damour. This will allow for better geographical coverage, from the north (Antelias) to the south (Damour) of Beirut. Such a strategy further strengthens Hôtel-Dieu de France’s position as a leading reference hospital, renowned for the quality of its care, its personnel, and its expertise.

The new Antelias Medical Center stands out with its modern, functional, and welcoming environment. It brings together medical expertise, advanced technology, and accessibility to provide patients with top-tier care, without straying far from their homes.
