About the hospital
A hospital that grew one department at a time
We opened in 1987 with six maternity beds above a pharmacy on Castle Road. Thirty-eight years later there are a hundred and eighty beds, fourteen departments and three sites — and the same rule about who has to be in the building at three in the morning.
Leading healthcare vision
Dedicated to improving lives through care
We were founded as a six-bed maternity home in 1987 and we have grown one department at a time, always in the same direction: keep the specialist and the patient in the same building, and keep the waiting short enough that people come early rather than late.
A resident consultant on every A&E shift, not a rota of registrars
Theatre lists that start on time, because the anaesthetist is ours
One record per patient, shared across all three of our sites

What we hold to
Four promises that cost us something
Any hospital can say it cares. These are the four we have actually built the rota, the software and the billing office around.
A consultant, not a rota
Every A&E shift has a consultant physically in the department. Not on call from home, not reachable by phone — in the building, on the floor, for the whole shift.
One record, three sites
Your notes, results and imaging follow you between Adabraka, East Legon and Tema. Nobody should have to carry their own X-rays across the city.
The price before the treatment
Written estimates for every planned procedure, and a named person in accounts who will explain a bill line by line. We would rather have the difficult conversation first.
Treatment before paperwork
Emergencies are stabilised before anyone asks about cover. It is the law and it is also the only decent way to run a hospital, and we say it out loud because not everyone does.
Our consultants
The people who will actually be in the room
Sixty-two resident specialists, and none of them shared with another hospital. These are the six who run our departments.
Dr Kwabena Mensah
Clinical director · Cardiology
Twenty-two years in cardiology, eleven of them here. Runs the Tuesday and Thursday clinics and reads every echo himself.
Dr Efua Adjei
Obstetrics & gynaecology
Delivered the first baby in the new maternity wing in 2019 and has led the unit since. Antenatal clinic every weekday morning.
Dr Selorm Owusu
General & laparoscopic surgery
Trained at Korle Bu and in Cape Town. Four theatre lists a week, and the surgeon most of our hernia and gallbladder work goes to.
Somebody is on the desk right now
Book a clinic, ask about a bill, or call the emergency line and speak to the department itself. No switchboard, no queue system.
