Our focus now is to continue to distinguish ourselves as the leader in Cardiothoracic care in the sub-region.

According to the World Health Organization, Cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death worldwide. More people die annually from CVD’s than from any cause contributing to about 31% of all global deaths.

Sadly, over three quarters of all CVD deaths occur in low-and-middle-income countries. By addressing behavioral risk factors such as unhealthy dieting and obesity, physical inactivity, harmful use of alcohol and tobacco use, can help prevent most CVD’s. It is everyone’s responsibility to consciously take actions that will promote their heart health thereby preventing the risk of complicated health diseases.

We hope to empower you with more resources in taking care of your heart as well as helping you maintain a healthy heart through expert cardiology consultation, diagnostics and cardiac surgery. Enjoy your experience with us and do come back.
