Riyadh:

Aster DM Healthcare, a leading integrated healthcare provider in the GCC, has launched its flagship digital health platform, myAster, in Saudi Arabia. This expansion aligns with Aster's ambitious plans to transform healthcare in the Kingdom and enhance accessibility for patients.

At LEAP 2025, Aster introduced AI-powered Arabic voice assistance in partnership with Google Cloud, enabling users to describe symptoms in their native dialects and receive personalized, culturally relevant healthcare recommendations. This innovation eliminates language barriers and enhances accessibility, reinforcing Aster's commitment to inclusive, patient-centric healthcare.

myAster empowers users to track health vitals, access lab reports and medical records, and manage chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. These features allow individuals to take control of their wellness journey, ensuring timely medical support and proactive healthcare management.

Our AI-driven solutions, developed in collaboration with Google Cloud, set a new standard for digital healthcare innovation. Our vision is to create a healthcare future that is smart, efficient, and deeply human-centered, addressing the unique needs of every patient.'

Bader Almadi, Google Cloud GM in Saudi Arabia, stated:
 'Unlocking solutions that empower customers remains central to every enterprise's digital transformation strategy. With AI and generative AI technologies, Aster DM Healthcare is transforming the patient experience through myAster. The Arabic voice response, powered by our advanced AI models, makes healthcare more accessible and personalized for the people of Saudi Arabia, showcasing AI's transformative role in healthcare delivery.'

Aster's SAR 1 Billion Investment in Saudi Arabia

Aster DM Healthcare has pledged SAR 1 billion (USD 250 million) over the next 2-3 years to expand its presence in Saudi Arabia. This investment will support:

●       The expansion of Aster Pharmacy to 180 stores across the Kingdom.

●       Increasing hospital bed capacity to 1,000 through the establishment of five new hospitals in major cities, in addition to the existing Aster Sanad Hospital.

●       The launch of 30 new medical centers, reinforcing an integrated healthcare model and creating approximately 4,900 jobs over the next five years.

The introduction of myAster is a critical component of this strategy, designed to provide a seamless, connected care experience for residents in Saudi Arabia.
