I haven’t seen Bander for many years, but while we were in Saudi Arabia, he was starting out as a Travel Agent, taking tours around the Old Town of Jeddah in an electric bus with about 10 seats. I already knew the Old Town well, having visited many times before, but wanted to take some friends around to see all the wonderful old houses. As I use a wheelchair, it was also a great way for me to see it. Bander was an excellent tour guide, knew his business and looked after us very well. For me, it was a novel way to see the Old Town, a lovely, quiet vehicle that could negotiate the narrow streets. Whatever Bander is doing now, I’m sure he will be doing it well. Best of luck, Bander, I hope to visit Jeddah again one day.

Bander is a very nice guy, personable and energetic and really enjoys people and positivity. If you have the chance to work with him, I am sure you will enjoy being with him. I know Bander from many years ago, when he was doing tours here in Saudi, before there was a tourist industry — ahead of his time!

It was such a pleasure to work with Bander in the Outpatient Department at Saad. While he managed the Appointment Center and I the Information & Consumer Research Center, our paths crossed daily as we aimed to improve customer service relations and create a customer friendly organization. He was instrumental in centralizing the appointment center and strategically planning and organizing the workflow to include various shifts to meet the needs of the customers as well as those of the physicians of the various clinics. Managing an appointment center is no easy task and Bander undertook this responsibility with great enthusiasm. He is planned, organized, and driven with results always top of his mind.
