"As I step into the role of President of the ECA, I am inspired by the sense of purpose and unity that binds us together in the United Arab Emirates’ chiropractic community. With open arms, we embrace diverse individuals, coming together with a shared commitment to making a positive impact on healthcare.
As health professionals, we possess the unique ability to create lasting change through our unwavering dedication and expertise. It is my firm belief that by promoting our profession effectively, we can not only establish ourselves as a leading healthcare service within the UAE but also leave a positive mark on the wider regional stage.
At the heart of our mission lies the desire to improve and enhance the health of those we serve. To achieve this goal, we must uphold a set of rigorous standards in our practices, operations, and licensing procedures. By doing so, we ensure that our patients receive the utmost professional and ethical care they rightfully deserve.
Rest assured, I am deeply committed to this cause and will dedicate myself to serving the interests of our profession and the well-being of our patients. My office doors are always open, welcoming any questions, queries, or innovative ideas you may have.
Together, as a united force, we will not only elevate the status of chiropractic care but also create a healthier and brighter future for all."
