NeuroCheck Pro Builds Toward MENA (Middle East and North Africa) Expansion - Appoints Digital Health Pioneer Dr Zakiuddin Ahmed as Advisor
NeuroCheck Pro is laying the groundwork for MENA expansion, with Saudi Arabia as our anchor market, and today we are announcing the advisor leading that push: Dr Zakiuddin Ahmed, digital health pioneer, joins as our Advisor.
A physician, strategist, an MIT Sloan alumnus and telemedicine pioneer since 1998, Dr Zakiuddin Ahmed leads Digital Care, Pakistan's first digital health company, and developed Rah@H at King Saud University, the world's first fully integrated connected-health RPM model. He is Adjunct Professor of Digital Health at HSA, Chairman of the International Conference on Digital Health, a HIMSS Middle East steering committee member, and the first Pakistani member of the American Telemedicine Association. His advisory work spans the WHO Technical Committee, the Global Digital Health Competency Framework, and the CAN/HSO 83001:2025 Virtual Care standard. He founded OPEN Karachi and co-founded Health Asia, now one of the region's largest health exhibitions.
"What drew me to NeuroCheck Pro is how seriously the team takes getting the detail right for patients and clinicians alike. It's built to be trustworthy and genuinely useful, and that combination is rare. I look forward to supporting the team as they grow into the markets where access to good care is needed most."
- Dr Zakiuddin Ahmed, Advisor, NeuroCheck Pro
“NeuroCheck Pro is being built to the highest standards of safety and care, in a field where getting it right for patients matters more than almost anything else. Zakiuddin has spent his career building digital health services in places where access to care is hardest to reach, from telemedicine in Pakistan to the Rah@H connected-health programme at King Saud University in Saudi Arabia. He is exactly the person you want in the room as we bring NeuroCheck Pro to the Gulf for the first time.”
- Tanha Tabassum, Founder & CEO, NeuroCheck Pro
This appointment marks a deliberate step in building toward our MENA expansion. Having someone of Dr Zakiuddin's standing choose to back NeuroCheck Pro at this stage speaks to where we're headed, and to the standard we intend to build to.
