The conference agenda this year has featured 14 intensive scientific sessions and 63 scientific posters, and the exhibition was marked with the participation of 90 companies from 72 countries.

Dr. Ibtesam Al Bastaki, Conference Chairperson said: “This year, we have focused on the role of family physician in detecting and treating substance abuse patient as this is evident in United Nations Office on drugs and crime (UNODC). The annual report 2015 showed that 246 million people use illicit drugs worldwide which means 1 out of 20 of the world population. It has also showed that 187,000 people die because of drug abuse. In the UAE, the burden of drug addiction problem is estimated at 5.4 billion US dollars.”

She continued on saying: “From quality outcome of the Primary Health Care, IFM has raised the topic of accreditations system, in addition to respiratory, geriatrics, and smoking cessation.”

IFM has become the ultimate platform for professional interaction and scientific discourse amongst healthcare specialists and practitioners to develop healthcare services in medical facilities and to keep up with global developments.
