Duchess International Hospital, a purpose-built 100-bed, a full ensuite health facility that provides primary, secondary, and tertiary healthcare services across a range of specialist and aub-specialty areas, has put Lagos on the world map of cities that offer outstanding health care services, says the acting Consul General, United States Consulate, Mr. Bill Bridgeland.
Bridgeland announced this when he visited the Duchess International Hospital and said the state-of-the-facility is going to put Lagos on the world map.
He said, “This is lovely. It is beyond my expectations, super impressive. State-of-the facilities, state-of-the-art personnel. This is going to put Lagos on the world map.”
In his response, the chief executive officer of the Duchess International Hospital, Dr. Adetokunbo Shitta-Bey, explained that the hospital is a wholly indigenous brand, firmly rooted in the needs and aspirations of the domestic populace and committed to providing access to high-quality affordable healthcare for residents of Nigeria and sub-Saharan Africa. “The hospital is uniquely positioned to solve the problem of access to affordable healthcare on behalf of local communities and overturn the trend of people traveling abroad for medical treatment.
“The Duchess International Hospital provides an impressive range of advanced and highly sophisticated facilities across a variety of specialties. The hospital, for example, offers the most advanced cardiac catheterization (Cath lab) suite in Africa combined with the requisite international expertise and experience to provide minimally invasive (interventional) cardiological treatments and ‘open heart’ surgery per global best practice,” Shitta Bey explained.
