Doha, Qatar: In a landmark achievement underscoring its unwavering commitment to global healthcare excellence, Naseem Healthcare has announced that the laboratory at Naseem Medical Centre, Al Wakrah has been awarded accreditation from the College of American Pathologists (CAP) for the first time.
This prestigious recognition places Naseem Healthcare among a select group of healthcare institutions worldwide that meet CAP’s rigorous international standards, reinforcing the organization’s dedication to quality, transparency, diagnostic precision, and patient safety.
CAP accreditation is widely regarded as one of the most stringent and globally respected benchmarks in laboratory medicine. Laboratories that achieve this status demonstrate excellence across multiple critical domains, including diagnostic accuracy, quality management systems, equipment calibration, safety protocols, regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement practices.
The accreditation follows a comprehensive and detailed inspection process conducted by CAP-appointed expert assessors. The evaluation examined every aspect of the laboratory’s operations - from personnel qualifications and technical competency to workflow processes, documentation standards, and quality assurance systems - ensuring full compliance with internationally recognized best practices.
Commenting on the milestone, Mr. Mohammed Miandad, VP and Managing Director of Naseem Healthcare and CMD 33 Holdings, described the achievement as a defining chapter in the organization’s quality journey.
“This milestone reflects our unwavering focus on delivering diagnostic services that our guests and clinicians can rely on with complete confidence. CAP accreditation is not merely a certification - it is validation of the culture of discipline, precision, and accountability that drives our teams every day,” he said, expressing appreciation to the laboratory professionals and leadership team who played a pivotal role in achieving the recognition.
Echoing the sentiment, Mr. Babu Shanavas, GM Operations and Head HR, emphasized that attaining CAP accreditation for the first time demonstrates the organization’s systematic commitment to internationally benchmarked healthcare delivery.
“Achieving this globally respected recognition reflects the dedication, teamwork, and quality-driven culture embedded across our organization. It reinforces our promise to provide diagnostics that meet the highest global standards,” he noted.
Dr. Munir Ali Ibrahim, GM Strategy, added that the accreditation aligns with the group’s broader strategic vision of integrating compassionate care with advanced clinical excellence.
“Our vision is to build healthcare institutions that combine patient-centred care with globally benchmarked standards. CAP accreditation strengthens that foundation and sets the stage for further international recognitions across our network,” he said.
Healthcare experts note that CAP-accredited laboratories are subject to continuous monitoring, regular inspections, and mandatory reassessments to maintain compliance. This ongoing oversight ensures sustained excellence in laboratory performance, reliability of test results, and improved patient outcomes.
Naseem Healthcare stated that this achievement significantly strengthens its position as a trusted private healthcare provider in Qatar. The organization also indicated that the accreditation marks the beginning of a broader roadmap aimed at expanding international accreditations, enhancing quality frameworks, and further elevating guest-centred healthcare services across all its facilities.
