🫀A Milestone in Advanced Cardiovascular Care:

We successfully performed a Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) procedure in our Cardiac Catheterisation Laboratory, led by Dr Nigel Omollo.

TEVAR is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat an aortic aneurysm, a potentially life-threatening condition caused by a weakened section of the body's main artery. During the procedure, a stent graft is placed inside the aorta to reinforce the weakened area and help prevent rupture. For eligible patients, TEVAR offers an alternative to open surgery and may support faster recovery with less surgical trauma.

This achievement reflects our commitment to expanding access to specialised cardiovascular care and highlights the expertise of our multidisciplinary team in delivering advanced endovascular interventions.

🩺 ADVANCING WOMEN'S HEALTH THROUGH SPECIALISED TRAINING:

We are honoured to host a Hysteroscopy Hands-On Workshop in partnership with the Kenya Obstetrical and Gynaecological Society (KOGS) Coast Branch on 21st-22nd October 2026.

Hysteroscopy is a procedure that allows doctors to look inside the womb (uterus) using a small camera, helping diagnose and treat conditions that may affect a woman's health. During the workshop, healthcare professionals will gain practical skills in assessing the womb lining (endometrium) and identifying abnormalities that may cause symptoms such as abnormal bleeding, infertility, or recurrent pregnancy loss.

The programme will also include 12 surgical procedures, giving women access to specialised care while enhancing the skills of clinicians under expert guidance.

By investing in continuous learning, we are strengthening women's healthcare services and helping ensure better outcomes for the women and families we serve.
