Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Rabeeah is a Saudi pediatric surgeon who has a made significant contributions to medical practice both in his native Saudi Arabia and abroad. After becoming a licensed practitioner in the early 1980s, he went on to specialize in the field of pediatrics, where he is internationally recognized for his work in separating conjoined twins. In addition to his work as a surgeon, Al Rabeeah has filled a number of supervisory and advisory roles in Saudi Arabia, including Minister of Health, Advisor to the Royal Court, and Supervisor General of the international aid agency KSrelief.

Early life

Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Rabeeah was born in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, on 23 February 1955.[1] When Al Rabeeah was a young boy, he fell off of his bicycle and injured himself. The wound required stitches, which the treating doctor administered to him without any anesthetic. This caused a lot of pain and discomfort for Al Rabeeah, and was the start of his interest in the medical world. With encouragement from his father, Al Rabeeah decided to study medicine to help to minimize and alleviate the suffering and pain of those in need.[2] Today, Al Rabeeah is recognized as one of the world's most renowned pediatric surgeons specializing in the separation of conjoined twins.

Education

Al Rabeeah realized his dream of becoming a doctor by first attending King Saud University, Riyadh, where he obtained his Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) degrees in July 1979 - (Awarded First Position). He progressed to his internship, which he served and completed in August 1980 at King Khalid University hospital, Riyadh. In 1981, Al Rabeeah was formally licensed to practice medicine; he then decided to continue his studies in Canada, attending the University of Alberta Hospital, Edmonton (1985) and IWK Hospital for Children, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia (1987) where he completed Fellowships in General and Pediatric Surgery, respectively.[1][3]

Career

Supervisor General of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre

Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Rabeeah currently serves as the Supervisor General of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (known as KSrelief), headquartered in Riyadh.[4]

He also concurrently holds the position of Advisor to the Royal Court. KSrelief was inaugurated on 13 May 2015 by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud; its purpose is to serve both as an aid-monitoring organization and as a direct provider for Saudi humanitarian aid and relief being administered worldwide.[5]

When Al Rabeeah began KSrelief, he recognized that the organization's mandate was unlike anything previously seen in the Kingdom. Starting with fewer than 50 employees, today the center's numbers have reached 195 and KSrelief has accomplished a great deal in terms of humanitarian aid and relief worldwide. As Supervisor General, Al Rabeeah's role is to steer international efforts to provide impartial, objective aid outside of Saudi Arabia to those in need. Working both unilaterally and with an impressive list of humanitarian and governmental partners, as of January 2017 Al Rabeeah has overseen [https://www.ksrelief.org/English/DataAndResult/Pages/StatisticsProjects.aspx 176 aid and relief projects in 37 countries]. Major focuses of the projects include food security, health, water and sanitation, education, women and children, vaccination and shelter. The centre is also working on instituting both a volunteer programme and a humanitarian research centre.

When asked about his devotion to humanitarian causes, Al Rabeeah gives all the credit to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman, saying, "The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud's, guidelines stress that our centre shall perform its duties in an unbiased way, based solely upon need and regardless to any other considerations." The centre is also to abide by approved international rules and widely-accepted humanitarian concepts.[6]

Throughout the course of his career, Al Rabeeah has held many positions of authority, achieving a successful balance between his duties as administrator, politician and physician to the benefit of all. His dedication to public service as his primary goal allows him to carry out diverse duties with a singular focus on serving his country and humanity.

Previous positions

Due to Al Rabeeah's success in his various roles, the late King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud chose him to take on the key and challenging position of Minister of Health for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.[7] Al Rabeeah readily accepted the position and was appointed as such on 14 February 2009.[8]

Some of his notable successes during his tenure as Minister of Health are:

  • Established new hospitals (79) and Primary Health Care Centres (824) as well as upgrading many existing health facilities.
  • The approval of building 5 Medical Cities North, South, East and West (Quaternary Level) as part of the ICHCP by Royal Decree. Budget allocated for the cities amounted to US$3.7 billion, which made Saudi MoH one of the largest investors in the Middle East.[3]

  • Hajj - MoH: Improved Hajj Medical Services to ensure further safety of the Pilgrims as well as implementing the Mass Gathering Concept (Jeddah Declaration) as endorsed by the World Health Organization.[15] The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is now considered a world-renowned authority on Mass Gatherings, and is a resource for research and reference in this area.[15]
    • Providing specialized services for life-threatening cases such as open-heart surgeries, by-passes and other serious cardiac ailments, as well as ongoing provision of regular medical services as necessary.
    • Implemented the highest-efficiency international and national surveillance systems and expertise to minimize infectious diseases during Hajj season.

Conjoined Twins

As a pediatric surgeon, Al Rabeeah is passionate about his chosen specialty, and throughout his various appointments has continued to perform separations of conjoined twins. He performed his first separation of female Saudi conjoined twins at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre, Riyadh in December 1990, as well as a further three.[19] Since 1996, Al Rabeeah and the Saudi National Team have reviewed 99 cases and performed 42 successful separations of conjoined twins from 19 countries. 38 of these surgeries were carried out at the Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs – King Abdulaziz Medical City, Riyadh.[20] All separations have been fully sponsored by the leadership of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

One of the most complex cases that Al Rabeeah undertook was at the request of the late King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud concerning Malaysian conjoined twins, Ahmed and Mohammed. The parents pleaded to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to help them. Accepting the challenge, Al Rabeeah agreed to the late King Abdullah's request and performed the surgery on the twins in September 2002. The numerous surgical phases took 23.5 hours and resulted in a successful separation of the boys.[21] To this date, Al Rabeeah considers this one of the most difficult, but also as one of his proudest accomplishments as a surgeon.[19]

Initially, the Conjoined Twins team consisted of only 10% Saudis, today it boasts all Saudi members in the different specialties.[9]

Based on his knowledge and commitment to these special babies, Al Rabeeah has written a book in Arabic entitled My Experience with Conjoined Twins; this book has been abridged in English (4 editions).[19]

He has published three additional books, and authored entries in 103 scientific/medical/abstract publications.[2]

Al Rabeeah is one of the founding members of the Riyadh Pediatric Surgery Club (1993), and holds the position of Chairman to this day. The Club now has more than 200 members.
