Speaking at a media briefing held at the Duchess International Hospital on the 9th of July, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr Adetokunbo Shitta-Bey said the Duchess Hospital set out in October 2021 with a clearly articulated vision to become “Africa’s favourite hospital” and a mission to “reverse medical tourism by delivering the highest standards of care”.

He highlighted the hospital’s key strategic priorities aimed at delivering “access to affordable world-class healthcare” and noted that Duchess, as a tertiary care hospital offers “the most advanced technology and treatments” and provides a range of specialized diagnostic and treatment interventions that enable it to serve as a hub for inbound medical tourism and a referral centre for complex medical care from primary and secondary care centres and hospitals across the country and abroad.

Describing the capacity and range of facilities available at the Duchess Hospital, Dr Shitta-Bey explained that the state-of-the-art, multi-specialist 100-bed hospital houses 36 clinical consulting rooms, five operating theatres, 22 critical care beds distributed across adult, paediatric, neonatal and cardiac intensive care, 21 dedicated cardiac beds and eight dialysis beds. He listed some of the hospital’s important milestone achievements in the last three years to include a groundbreaking 12-hour complex breast reconstruction, routinely performed reconstructive Plastic surgery and complex Orthopaedic surgery procedures, including knee and hip replacements and trauma, complex operations on the brain and spine and a thriving and highly successful Open Heart Surgery programme.

Shitta-Bey reiterated the hospital’s commitment to delivering access to affordable world-class healthcare for all Nigerians, regardless of socio-economic status. He stated, despite these achievements, that patient registration at the Duchess Hospital has remained N5000 (five thousand Naira) since the inception of the hospital and will continue to be charged at N5000 for all patients and for the foreseeable future.

Speaking on behalf of the Board of Directors, Dr Adeyemi Onabowale, Chairman of the Duchess International Hospital and the Reddington Hospital Group remarked: “I am delighted that Duchess has been able to transform the lives of numerous Nigerians, brought joy to homes through providing affordable quality healthcare and reduce the trend of medical tourism abroad in less than three years of its operation and existence”.

He further stated that “this was achieved in a difficult operating environment marked by high inflation, high cost of electricity, and low purchasing power affecting many Nigerians”. Dr Onabowale commended the staff and management of the Duchess International Hospital for their dedication and charged them to continue to put the selfless service of saving lives above any other consideration.
