NMC Healthcare’s board of directors has appointed David Hadley as the group’s new chief executive officer (CEO), the healthcare company announced on Monday.
Hadley will assume day-to-day leadership of the group in early 2023, and joins from Mediclinic Middle East, where he served as CEO for the past 13 years, the statement said.
Hadley, who succeeds Michael Davis, has 30 years of experience within the healthcare industry in UAE and South Africa.
Following Mediclinic’s entry into UAE in 2006, Hadley led the South Africa-based company into one of the country’s leading private healthcare organisations and was “instrumental in the successful amalgamation of Al Noor Hospitals Group into Mediclinic following its acquisition in 2016,” the statement said.
“Whilst I am sad to leave Mediclinic after a very happy and fulfilling 30 years, I am very excited to join NMC as it enters a new phase following a challenging few years. NMC is a remarkable world-class company with deep commitment toward our communities, partners, and regulators,” Hadley said.
He added: “It is my intention to ensure that NMC’s patients continue to receive the high-quality care that sets us apart from others. I look forward to working with NMC management, staff, and shareholders to deliver on this.”
