Tribute to Freddie Fu
2 Hospital HOME 2012 editorial No One Achieves Success Alone Founded in 2009, HOME (Hospital for Orthopedics and Specialized Medicine) is the realization of a dream. It was created to offer a high standard and excellent service of in the treatment of diseases of the locomotor system. That’s why the idea was to add specialists of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Neurosurgery, Neurology and Physiotherapy to other medical specialties related to and supporting for Rheumatology, Medical Clinic, Cardiology, General and Bariatric Surgery, Peripheral Vascular, Urology, Nephrology, maxillofacial Surgery, Head and Neck Surgery, Intensive Therapy, Infectology, Pain Clinic, among others. Today, I’m sure we have reached our goal. In just three years, we have become a reference in the field of orthopedics in Brazil. Consequently our responsibility is even greater. The clinical staff of HOME is made up of of highly qualified, conceptualized professional, who keep up-to-date constantly. Our facilities were built specifically to support the most diverse medical specialties. In addition to the “Freddie Fu” Surgical Center (a tribute to one of the world’s most famous orthopedists), HOME has a clinical laboratory, a large imaging center and one of the biggest rehabilitation centers in the country available. And just like an open hospital, we make these spaces available so that experts from outside of our clinical staff can use our structure. This positive and ethic integration, of a number of services, coupled with the work and dedication of all professionals and employees, have given HOME its credibility and reputation. Soon we will have new additions. There will be an additional 7000 squaremeters, including a complete cardio center, a new surgical center for highly complex cardiovascular surgery, hemodynamics, more hospital beds, more ICU beds, imaging unit and a helipad. . Looking back on all that has been achieved and seeing what we can do in the future, the only thing that remains for me to do is to give thanks: to everyone who believed in this project, especially my father-in-law, businessman Nazir Nabil El Haje, investor and chairman of the hospital, who although not a doctor, always believed in medicine as one of the best ways to do good for others. Also his wife, Helenita, my second mother, and their children, Susie (my dear wife), Nazir and Fause. I hope that as you read the following pages in this publication you will be able to realize how challenging, but at the same time how very valuable and rewarding it is to be a part of developing a teamwork effort. I conclude, by paraphrasing the journalist and businessman Antonio Augusto de Carvalho (the Tuta) of Jovem Pan Radio Station in his latest book, “NO ONE ACHIEVES SUCCESS ALONE.” Dr. Paulo Lobo Coordinator of the musculoskeletal Division and Sports Medicine of HOME. Member/director of the Brazilian Society of Sports Traumatology and Arthroscopy (SBRATE). Coordinator of the Medical Department of the Brasiliense Football Club.

Hospital HOME 2012 Interview 6 A dream come true Nabil Nazir El Haje Hospital HOME 2012 Being a doctor was a childhood dream of businessman Nazir Nabil El Haje. From early on medicine fascinated him. Harsh realities, however, prevented the boy, who came to Brazil from Lebanon when he was nine years old, from fulfilling his vocation. Shortly after turning 12 years old in the 1950s, his father went blind. There was no other alternative for Nabil but to start working in the family business, a grocery store in Anapolis (GO), to help support the household. The small grocery store in the interior of Goias was just the beginning of the bright future that was to follow. Much work and the privilege of a great talent for business made Nabil El Haje stand out as one of the big businessmen in the Brazilian Midwest, primarily in the areas of hotel business and civil construction. And while he was not able to fulfill his dream of being a doctor when he was small, he had the good fortune of seeing his grandchildren and son-in-law practice this profession. To get even closer to what was his great passion, in 2009 Nabil decided to build HOME (Hospital Ortopédico e Medicina Especializada – Hospital for Orthopedics and Specialized Medicine). In just three years in operation, HOME has become a point of reference throughout the whole country, in its various specialties. For Nabil, this is only the beginning of a path that has the potential to be a long and solid one. Following are excerpts of an interview with the founder of the hospital. Interview 7 How did the idea of creating a hospital come about? Nabil - Since I was a child in Lebanon I always had the dream of studying & practicing medicine. After I became a businessman fate had it that my son-in-law as well as three of my six grandchildren became doctors. And I have still another granddaughter who is taking her college entrance exam to study medicine. I also have two other grandchildren who are studying architecture and law / administration, respectively. I am very proud of all of them. I built the hospital for them, so they can devote themselves to helping people, having the best possible working conditions available to them. But none of this would exist if it were not for the unconditional support of my wife, Helenita, and the active participation of my children, Susie, and Nazir Fause in the administration of the companies. What are your expectations for the future? Nabil - Our intention is to consolidate HOME more and more as one of the best hospitals in the country. Soon, we will build another wing in the hospital, specializing in high complexity surgery, especially in the cardiovascular area, besides expanding orthopedics and neurosurgery. We will also equip HOME with a helipad so that emergency care can be even faster and more efficient. The goal is to be able to offer ever better and more cutting edge services to our patients. Will HOME expand to other locations in the Federal District? Nabil - This has always been the idea and we’re already working on it. In addition to continuing the process of constant modernization of the headquarters, in Asa Sul, we will build another HOME unit in Ceilândia. It will have about 300 beds and a structure that will not be inferior at all to the hospital on L2 Sul. The southern part of the Federal District is growing very much and hence the demand for hospital services as well. Nothing is fairer than having a hospital with all the excellence of HOME, always striving for the comfort of their patients.

But the movements can result in more problems than benefits if they are done without the necessary guidance or in the wrong way. At CEMPRE a highly skilled team works with injury prevention both in regular individuals and in top athletes. Other differentials include guidance and sports programs for elderly, pregnant, and cardio patients, as well as hypertensive and diabetic patients. The clinic performs procedures such as cardiopulmonary exercise testing, digital dynamometry and assessment of muscular and joint balance, electrocardiogram in a resting position, postural assessment and treatment of deformities of the spine and chest, sports check-up, teen check-up, assessment of foot or stepping types with production of custom made insoles, treatment of tendinitis, arthritis program, body composition assessment and strength testing. CEMPRE is the only clinic in Brazil to develop a methodology created by the University of Pittsburgh, USA, to identify alterations in the brain caused by concussions, a fairly common problem in contact sports such as football and basketball. This test identifies possible changes and allows an accurate assessment of the right time for the person to resume their sporting activity without any restriction from the clinical perspective. The center also cultivates the “CEMPRE Circuit”, taking its services to clubs and gyms so that students or associates have access to this treatment. The work of the Center of Sports Prevention Medicine is coordinated by doctors Moacir Silva Neto, Gustavo Orrico, Nackle Jibran, Getulio Bernardo Morato Jr and Guilherme Coutinhon. DR.
