Dr. Wael Habhab, Chairman of the Internal Medicine Department at KFSHRC in Jeddah and a leading physician for the Home Hemodialysis initiative, stated, "The initial outcomes of the initiative revealed a substantial reduction in emergency room visits and hospital admissions, as well as lower re-hospitalization rates."
