SURGICAL OUTREACH 2022

Surgical Aid Foundation Outreach 2022

THEME: EXPANDING ACCESS TO SURGERY WITHOUT SCARS

Surgical Aid Foundation in conjunction with Kelina Hospital carries out her annual outreach programme for 2022. This outreach has been holding every year since 2009 as our Corporate Social Responsibility. This year, it will run concurrently in our locations in Abuja and Lagos.

  • 25th October- 25th November, 2022
  • Kelina Hospital Abuja: 3rd Avenue, by 34 Crescent, Gwarinpa.
  • Kelina Hospital Lagos: No 7, Ologun Agbaje Street, off Adeola Odeku Street, Victoria Island.

The number of Nigerians who can access expensive Minimally Invasive Surgical procedures has reduced over the years, due to economic factors. Surgical Aid Foundation and Kelina Hospital have been making our own modest effort to help citizens overcome constraints to accessing quality surgical care each year.
