Green Crescent Hospital

What Green Crescent Hospital does

Green Crescent Hospital (مستشفى الهلال الأخضر) is a private, multi-specialty acute-care hospital founded in 1981 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, operating as a flagship asset of parent company Dar Sedra Medical Group (مجموعة دار سدرة الطبية). The hospital runs 18 medical departments spanning cardiology, obstetrics and gynecology, vascular surgery, general surgery, orthopedics, neurology and neurosurgery, urology, ophthalmology, pediatrics, dental, ENT, chest diseases, internal medicine, emergency, laboratory, radiology, physical therapy, and therapeutic nutrition, supported by advanced diagnostic equipment (OCT, Pentacam, ultrasound, nuclear medicine with a radioactive-materials license from King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology) and surgical capabilities including laparoscopic, cardiac catheterization, and phaco cataract procedures. It holds CBAHI accreditation, ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certifications, and is reported to comply with JCI standards, with the OB/GYN department being SCFHS-accredited as the first private-sector physician training center in that specialty.

The hospital serves approximately 1,000 patients daily and has delivered more than 83,000 newborns cumulatively, with stated pioneering achievements in the Saudi private sector across laparoscopic surgery, cardiac catheterization, phaco cataract technology, electrical stimulation for infertility, and nuclear medicine. Distribution is omnichannel and physical-first: walk-in and emergency visits at the single Riyadh campus (Al-Mutamerat District, King Fahd Road), self-serve online booking through the website, native Android and iOS mobile apps, WhatsApp/phone inquiries, 24/7 emergency services, and cashless treatment through a panel of 13 Saudi insurers (Bupa, Malaz, Taawoni, United, Sarama, Saico, Gulf Group, GlobeMed, Comprehensive Care, Takaful Al Rajihi, Arab Shield, Medgulf). Marketing spans Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Snapchat, a health-article blog, and SEO-optimized department and doctor pages.

Revenue is generated through fee-for-service healthcare delivery — consultations, diagnostics, surgical procedures, inpatient care, maternity packages (e.g., natural birth SAR 2,599, cesarean SAR 4,250, 3-month pregnancy follow-up SAR 777), laboratory and imaging services, insurance claims across the in-network panel, and dedicated corporate accounts. The hospital is privately held under Dar Sedra Medical Group, led by Chairman of the Board Engineer Ali bin Saeed Al-Khayyar; in October 2025 the parent group signed a strategic agreement with Yaqeen Financial (يقين المالية) to pursue a listing of Dar Sedra on the Saudi financial market under Vision 2030. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the company discloses no AI/ML capabilities, research publications, or AI-driven clinical or operational systems.
