The late Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz had ordered during his visit to Bahrain April 2010 to build a medical city in Durrat Al Bahrain.

The Medical City will include 300 beds and a full range of outpatient clinics, in addition to 15 operating rooms and quality support medical services such as advanced laboratories and a pharmacy.
