In 1989, ten Qatar businessmen made out a primary outline of the Medicare Group that comprised the previously-established Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology Private Hospital that had an initial total capacity of 100 beds. One year later, that is in 1990, with the support of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani, the shareholders (founders) were granted several hectares in Ahmed bin Ali Street (the present location) by the Qatari government to establish a new healthcare facility. On 17th December 1995, an Emiri Decree was issued by the Office of His Highness Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, the father Emir of the State of Qatar, announcing the establishment of Al-Ahli Hospital (which is called now the Medicare Group Q.P.S.C. (MCGS) as a public shareholding company.

Under the auspices of His Highness the Emir of the State of Qatar, the healthcare project has attracted more shareholders to the project. This resulted in the increase of the project founders from 10 to 100. A founding committee headed by Mr. Abdul Rahman Eisa Al-Manaai was formed by election in 1996.
The founding committee reconsidered the project plan and finally decided to build a 250-bed multi-specialty hospital that would provide five-star healthcare services in a comfy environment that bring guests a luxurious hotel-like experience.

With the election of the new board of directors (chaired by H.E. Sheikh Thani bin Abdullah Al Thani) in 2001, the loan received for the hospital foundation was converted to an Islamic financing institution to agree with the Islamic Sharia and Articles of Association. Therefore, the loan was repaid in full through increasing the capital. In 2006, the hospital has become to be fully possessed by the investors therein. The hospital equipment with the latest medical devices has been completed in 01st January 2004. It has opened officially for the public in November 2004.
