Welcome to
the DEEP DIVE

Dear Colleagues,
I am honored to welcome you to DeepDive 2024, the Fifth Annual Family Medicine Update Conference, which will be held December 18-21 at the Grand Hyatt Al Khobar. This conference is a significant milestone in our collective journey reaffirming our commitment to advancing excellence in family medicine.

Under the patronage of the Saudi Family Medicine Society, Deep Dive 2024 provides a crucial platform for enriching our practices with the latest research, innovative techniques, and valuable exchanges among practitioners, researchers, and educators. This year also marks the celebration of the fourth edition of DaleelFM.com, a resource that originated at a similar conference where forward-thinking physicians collaborated to enhance the resources available in our field.

As a consultant in Family and Geriatric Medicine and the Head of the Primary Care Unit at Johns Hopkins Aramco Healthcare in Ras Tanura, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of knowledge and collaboration. This year’s program features a diverse array of clinical and non-clinical workshops, alongside hands-on sessions led by expert faculty from across Saudi Arabia. I am also excited to announce a new addition to our agenda: a marathon on Friday aimed at promoting healthy engagement within a dynamic environment.

I would like to extend my gratitude to our sponsors, Tawuniya and its affiliate, Meena, for their generous support in making this event possible. Additionally, I am profoundly thankful to the dedicated organizing committee, the scientific committee, event troop, and all those who have worked tirelessly to bring this conference to fruition.

Thank you for joining us in our effort to elevate the standards of family medicine. Together, we will continue to shape a brighter future for our field and the communities we serve.
Sky is Home.
Best Regards,

Dr. Muna Almaghaslah
