Daw Clinics, the largest chain of outpatient clinics in Egypt, has announced signing a financing deal worth EGP 250m with Al Ahly Capital Holding and the Egyptian-American Enterprise Fund (EAEF).

Dawi aims to focus on the growth of the outpatient clinic network in Egypt, and use the new funding to enhance its expansion plans and spread in different Egyptian governorates and open 30 new branches throughout Egypt, and focus on investing in the medical technology platform, managing and analyzing data, and communicating with patients through medication remotely, offering loyalty programs and integrated health care for clients with clinics.

Daw has 20 branches in 10 different governorates, and provides high-quality medical care and distinguished health services for Egyptian families through the application of international standards in health care in its comprehensive concept, through a professional medical staff consisting of 260 doctors in various specialties, and it also provides its medical services in clinics throughout the week and even on official holidays and Dawi accepts all insurance cards present in the Egyptian market, and is also working on offering discounted family programs for families who are not covered by insurance.

It works to improve the medical and health care level in Egypt, reach different groups and segments of society, and facilitate treatment for them at reasonable prices that suit their needs. It provided its services to about 120,000 patients through the unique operating model of “Dawy” clinics, by selecting a distinguished group of doctors and enabling them to work in a coordinated manner through a cloud-based electronic medical records platform that keeps all patients’ medical data in a secure file.
