Aster DM Healthcare appoints new deputy managing director

Alisha Moopen, executive director and CEO of Hospitals and Clinics-GCC, has been promoted to the role of deputy managing director of Aster DM Healthcare. Working closely with Dr. Azad Moopen, founder, chairman and managing director of Aster DM Healthcare, Alisha Moopen would be leading the growth strategy for the company and steering the organisation to newer heights of success. The appointment was approved by the Board of Directors of Aster DM Healthcare during their meeting on 7 August, 2019.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Azad Moopen said: “The appointment is a part of our long-term strategy to create a sustainable business that is well-equipped to meet the needs of the market and the people. Having seen Aster DM Healthcare being built brick by brick over the last three decades, Alisha has been in-grained with the values and purpose of the organisation. A qualified Chartered Accountant with over 7 years of experience working with leading financial organizations in UK and USA, before joining Aster DM Healthcare, she brings in the talent and capabilities required to take our organization to the next level.  Having worked within the company for the last 7 years and leading the success story in many of our markets, Alisha has been elevated to this position based on her performance and capabilities. We are confident that she would continue to build the legacy of Aster with the brand promise of ‘We’ll Treat You Well’ and lead the organisation to be in the forefront of healthcare providers through digital transformation and make it future ready.”

“I am so humbled and honoured with this opportunity to continue the legacy of Aster and serve our mission in healthcare. Many companies aspire to change the world but very few have all the elements required: talent, resources, and compassion. Aster has proven that it has all three in abundance and as the deputy managing director, I can’t ask for a better foundation. My dream for the future and our collective goal as an organisation is to build the healthcare model of care that is centred around wellness and superior clinical outcome to ensure people’s wellbeing to live a happy and fulfilled life thereby building a success story on impact and sustainability in this ever-evolving world,” said Alisha Moopen.

In her new capacity, in addition to her current portfolio, Alisha Moopen would also be responsible for driving the organisation culture and shaping the company into a future-ready organisation.
