In a pioneering move that supports the UAE’s national vision for proactive, digitally enabled healthcare, The Life Corner (TLC), a subsidiary of PureHealth, has partnered with Al Ain Pharmacy to introduce AI-powered wellness screenings across its pharmacy network. This initiative brings advanced health technology directly to the public through routine pharmacy visits, making preventive care more accessible than ever before.

The collaboration is designed to shift the healthcare experience from reactive treatment to early intervention. By embedding smart screening tools into everyday pharmacy workflows, the programme enables early detection of health risks, encourages healthier lifestyles, and expands access to routine care beyond hospitals and clinics.

The screenings — covering vital signs, general fitness, and early indicators of chronic conditions are designed to be quick, affordable, and user-friendly. Customers can receive personalised health insights during regular pharmacy visits, without the need for appointments or hospital referrals.

"We are proud to be the first pharmacy group in the UAE to implement this transformative technology," said Dr Ziad Amir Saleh, CEO of Al Ain Pharmacy Group. "Our mission has always been to serve the community with the highest standards of care. This partnership with TLC allows us to do just that, by making preventive health more accessible, more efficient, and more impactful."

Headquartered in Abu Dhabi, The Life Corner is the UAE’s leading pharmacy management company. With a network of 82 pharmacies across hospitals, clinics, and retail locations, TLC delivers clinically governed, large-scale pharmacy services that support both hospital and community care. Its work is central to building a more integrated, efficient healthcare ecosystem — one that aligns with the UAE’s long-term goals for wellbeing and longevity.

Founded in 1976, Al Ain Pharmacy has grown into one of the UAE’s leading pharmacy chains, known for its long-standing commitment to quality care and community health. With nearly five decades of experience, the group has consistently introduced innovative solutions to better serve the public. This forward-thinking approach continues to define its legacy as a trusted and progressive healthcare provider.

"We believe in healthcare that starts with the individual — accessible, proactive, and rooted in innovation," said Kinjal Zaveri, chief cluster services lead at PureHealth. "This initiative with The Life Corner reflects how smart technology can bring real change to communities, helping people take control of their wellbeing while supporting the UAE’s broader goals for longevity and sustainable health outcomes."

The programme also contributes to environmental sustainability by reducing unnecessary travel and streamlining workflows, in line with broader ESG principles such as minimising waste and lowering emissions in healthcare delivery.

The TLC–Al Ain Pharmacy partnership is helping embed preventive care into everyday life, using the power of community pharmacies to make health services more accessible, efficient, and patient-focused across the UAE.
