WELCOME TO SURGICAL AID FOUNDATION

We understand that surgery can be expensive and beyond the means of the average person. We also understand how it feels to be unable to afford the cost of the surgeries that would give a second chance at life. Our vision is to continuously support hospitals that satisfy our stringent standards to carry out annual Surgical Aid Missions with various themes for each year. We understand that life is easier when there is a shoulder to share your burdens, and we are here to offer that shoulder.

 

SAF understands that endoscopic Minimal Access Surgeries could be expensive and beyond the means of an average income earner. SAF also realizes that everyone needs another opportunity to live a productive life and not pass away as a result of inaccessibility to medical facilities or exorbitant cost of such surgery. We are conscious that life is easier with loved ones around us. 
SAF is willing to take that chance with you.

 

CHANGING THE STATUS-QUO

There are very high-standard medical facilities with the latest technology available in Nigeria at an affordable cost with experts trained in the best facilities in the world. Unfortunately, many patients are unaware of these facilities, or cannot afford the surgery fees in spite of these facts. A major drawback of travelling abroad for surgical treatment is the difficulty to follow up with their surgeons, especially after returning to the home country. In the worst cases, the surgeries are unsuccessful and there is no way the doctors can be held accountable for their actions. This is because they are not subject to our laws and not much can be done to get justice here at home. We understand that finding the best facility for certain surgical procedures can be a stressful process. Worse still, doctors and hospitals are unable to advertise based on existing laws. But you are not alone in this process, we are here for you.

 

 

 

 

 

OUR PROGRAMMES...

Outreach Programme
Surgical Aid Foundation organizes medical outreach Programmes annually to support patients in need to access medical care. These outreach Programmes help to bring medical services to people at a subsidized or low cost. This year the programme was designed to impact demographics impacted by the pandemic.  View the 2020 program report.  
Surgical Assistance. 
Surgical Aid Foundation offers financial assistance (when possible) to deter costs of surgeries by indigent patients. We adhere to internally controlled guidelines to determine eligibility for the provision of assistance. We also help patients who need advice on options available to them, even if they are not challenged financially. .
Linking Patients with Health Institutions
Surgical Aid Foundation helps people by referring them to strictly vetted hospitals for their surgical needs. Through our vetting system, we have identified and created partnerships with hospitals specialized in Minimal Access Surgeries. Our referral process helps people secure top-notch quality surgical care in and out of Nigeria. We are determined to help citizens who are in need of specialized care to see if they could receive such care within Nigeria, thereby obviating the need for Nigerians to travel around the whole world in search of help for their health problems with associated hazards and difficulties that our people have had to cope with around the globe. We liaise with hospitals especially within Nigeria to reduce medical tourism, but where this is not possible, with others outside the country as well, to ensure that our citizens that go to them get the best level care and return home safely. .
Training Programmes
Surgical Aid Foundation collaborates with hospitals and agencies that show interest in training and education of healthcare personnel to build our human capacity, thereby bringing about sustained improvement in our quality of care. We organize training Programmes that bring personnel in contact with experts in their chosen field and new technology not commonly available in Nigeria, as our own effort at technology acquisition here at home.
Promotion of Good Health
Surgical Aid Foundation promotes healthy living by producing and disseminating health improvement information to the public through various means such as articles, videos, radio jingles amongst others. This helps to educate the public about lifestyle habits that put them at risk for conditions that may require surgery, and how to best change their lifestyle..
