How we staff the clinics
On staff, on the rota, and on the same notes as you
Every consultant here is employed by the hospital rather than visiting it. That is more expensive to run and it is the reason the doctor who saw you in March can be the one who reads your results in September.
Registered and revalidated
Every clinician holds a current licence with the Medical and Dental Council of Ghana, checked annually rather than at hiring.
A named clinic, a named day
Consultants keep fixed clinics so that a follow-up can be booked with the same doctor rather than with whoever is free.
A morning handover, every day
The wards, theatre and A&E meet at 07:30. Nothing that happened overnight is discovered from the notes alone.
You do not need a referral to see any of them
Book a consultant clinic directly. If it turns out you need a different department, we move you rather than sending you back to the start.
Book an appointment
Three steps, and a person at the end of each one
Tell us what is wrong
Call 030 274 1200, or send the form on the contact page. Someone answers between 07:00 and 19:00.
We match you to a consultant
Not to whoever is free — to the doctor whose clinic your problem actually belongs in.
You get a time and a price
Both in writing, before you travel. If we cannot see you this week, we say so.
Accident & Emergency
Open every hour of every day, including the ones nobody plans for
Emergency line +233 30 274 1999. Ambulances dispatched from 14 Nii Nortei Nyanchi Street, Dzorwulu, Accra. If you can walk in, walk in — a triage nurse sees everyone at the door.
