mastery of the hands of foreign consultants.

In a press statement, DR Al-Abdulahdi said "We have invited a
delegation of doctors and consultants from Saudi Arabia and the
Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan to the Salim Ali Centre for Speech and
Hearing therapy to conduct these surgeries. It is the First time,
doctors with remarkable levels, both surgeons and programmers, and
all of them highly experienced and graduates of American, Canadian

Arab consultants have easy dealings with patients."
