About Hope

We look after the whole of you, not only the reason you came

Hope has looked after families in Dzorwulu since 1998. Twelve departments, one set of notes and consultants who introduce themselves by name — so that whichever door you come through, the next person already knows what happened at the last one.

Why families stay with us

One set of notes, every department

A ward you would leave your mother on

Costs quoted before treatment starts

Consultants, not rotating locums

What we promise

Three things we will not quietly stop doing

01

One set of notes

Your cardiologist can see what the physiotherapist wrote, and the pharmacist can see both. Nobody at Hope asks you to repeat your own history.

02

A price before the treatment

Every consultation, investigation and procedure is quoted in writing before it is booked. If we cannot see you this week we say so, rather than holding the slot.

03

The same faces

Our consultants are on staff, not on rotation. The doctor who saw you in March is the one who reads your results in September.

Medical director

Dr. Yaa Nkrumah, and the hospital she answers for

“I trained at Korle Bu and spent eleven years abroad before coming home. What I wanted to build here was not a bigger hospital — it was one where the notes follow the patient, where the consultant who saw you is the one who calls you back, and where nobody discovers the cost of their care after the fact.”

“We are a private hospital in a country where most people pay for part of their own care. That puts an obligation on us to be honest about money as well as about medicine, and it is the promise I would most like to be judged on.”

Visiting a patient

Come in the afternoon, and bring less than you think

General wards are open from 10:00 to 12:00 and again from 16:00 to 19:00, two visitors at a time. The children's ward keeps a parent's bed beside every cot, and a parent may stay through the night.
