Physician, non-fiction author, and broadcast media commentator and writer Dr. Qanta Ahmed joins The 966 from New York to discuss the “colossal” changes in Saudi Arabia since Vision 2030 was launched and her view that Saudi Arabia has emerged as an increasingly important and influential global power. Dr. Qanta is an Academic Pulmonologist and Sleep Disorder Specialist at NYU Langone and has lived in and visited Saudi Arabia now over a period spanning 3 decades. She first visited Saudi Arabia as a single female doctor in 1999, and wrote a book, called ‘In the Land of Invisible Women,’ (a title she reveals to The 966 she did not write) detailing her experiences in the Kingdom.
