Founder · Patient & Family Journey Support
MeetAlison Aranha.
I founded AA Health Central’s Patient & Family Journey Support service after 15 years working in healthcare operations and administration across the UAE, the USA and Europe. I saw how patients and families could be left coordinating appointments, records, insurance queries and follow-up while already dealing with a difficult healthcare situation. The service provides practical, non-clinical help with those details, so patients and families feel more organised and supported through their healthcare journey.

Founder introduction to AA Health Central
In Alison’s words
“Good coordination brings structure to a complex healthcare journey. Its real value is helping patients and families feel informed, supported and able to focus on what matters most.”
Alison’s background
Experience across healthcare systems.
Alison’s career spans hospitals, government organisations and private healthcare centres, where she has created and improved clinical and administrative processes and streamlined patient care pathways. This experience has given her a practical understanding of how healthcare systems work, how services connect, and where communication or coordination gaps can leave patients and families unsure about what happens next.
She now brings that experience to patients and families: helping identify gaps, clarify priorities and next steps, and coordinate practical support across providers and stakeholders. She brings an independent patient-and-family perspective, helping people feel heard and supported while clinical advice and decisions remain with their healthcare professionals.
