A dental clinic is facing action from the Dubai Health Authority (DHA) for hosting a non-approved prize give away event, causing a traffic jam on Al Wasl Road in Jumeirah.
Authorities have not given out the name of the clinic but in a statement issued, it said that the clinic will be facing legal action for carrying out marketing and promotional campaigns without getting a final approval from the DHA’s health regulation sector.
The statement adds, “The clinic also did not follow advertising protocols, and announced prizes and giveaways including TVs and mobile phones to clinic visitors, which caused a traffic jam on Al Wasl Road.”
“DHA reiterated that all Dubai health care facilities should follow federal and local guidelines for regulatory processes, including all marketing and promotional guidelines.”
