I would like to welcome you to the website of the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology (DLMP) of Hamad Medical Corporation. The central mission and interest of the DLMP is implementing patient care of the highest standards by providing laboratory services which meet, and even exceed, the expectations of all patients and customers.

The Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology is committed to a culture of quality, patient safety, and organizational integrity. We strive to become a national and regional leader in laboratory medicine through dedication to quality innovation, teaching and research. We serve the State of Qatar by providing a comprehensive range of esoteric and routine diagnostic testing performed at our world class CAP and ASHI accredited facilities. We are now embracing the future and moving towards the era of precision medicine. We are introducing new technologies, state-of-the-art laboratories with Molecular and Genomic testing that will lead to more effective pre-emptive diagnostic regimens for optimal patient care and a healthier population in Qatar.

DLMP operates a resilient hub and spoke model with three major hubs. The central hub is based in Qatar’s capital city Doha with a South Hub (Al Wakra) and North Hub (Al Khor). There are additional Rapid Response laboratories situated in satellite facilities across Qatar. Our network of laboratories, along with the strategic alliances we have forged with key international partners, allows us to provide a gold standard of patient care, research and education. Our world class team of consultants, clinical scientists and technical staff promote a culture of technology-based improvement by utilizing quality management and business intelligence data to drive our strategic planning, with the focus being superior patient care.
