    Nairobi County Ag. Secretary Patrick Analo officially opens the Karen Specialty and Executive Clinic. With him is the Aga Khan University Hospital CEO Rashid Khalani and COO of Outreach Network Khurram Jamal. The facility is part of the Aga Khan University Hospital’s strategy to bring specialized care closer to the community.

    Aga Khan University Hospital, Nairobi (AKUH, N) is making a strategic move to tap into the growing market of inbound medical tourism, according to Rashid Khalani, the CEO.

    Rashid says they have recognised the potential for attracting international patients seeking high-quality healthcare services, and the hospital aims to position itself as a premier destination for medical tourists.

    “Three years ago, we began implementing a new strategy of running specialist clinics at our outreach centres which previously only offered primary care. The clinics are run by our specialists from the main hospital, ensuring that the same quality of care offered at the main hospital is available in the neighbourhoods,” Rashid Khalani said during the inauguration of the new speciality and executive clinic in Karen.

    The Karen Speciality and Executive Clinic marks the hospital’s 52nd Outreach Medical Centre and will offer a wide range of services including cardiology, nephrology, paediatrics, dermatology, obstetrics and gynaecology, family medicine, and Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT).

    One of the key features of the clinic is its one-stop Cardiac Care Centre, which will offer critical tests such as Exercise Stress Test, Echo, and ECG, among others.

    Additionally, an executive wellness program will be available, supported by comprehensive diagnostic services, including X-ray, Ultrasound, Mammography, and a well-equipped laboratory.

    The establishment of the Karen Clinic follows closely on the heels of the recent opening of the Roysambu Specialty Care Centre. In addition to offering specialized clinics, it also provides day surgeries, dialysis, chemotherapy, and endoscopy.

    Khalani expressed the hospital’s commitment to increasing access to quality care, stating, “Increasing access to quality care is deeply rooted in our values, and guided by this principle, we intend to open many more centres in the years to come.”

    The hospital operates 49 medical centres in Kenya and three in Uganda, providing healthcare services to nearly 700,000 patients annually.

    As a teaching hospital of the Aga Khan University, it plays a crucial role in advanced training programs in various specialities, including oncology, neurology, cardiology, infectious diseases, neonatology, and nuclear medicine.

    Moreover, the hospital actively supports the academic programs of the university as an institution of knowledge.
