Urologist Professor James N’Dow DL, the Founder and Director of Horizons Clinic Gambia Limited, is dedicated to providing exceptional specialist medical services and saving lives in The Gambia. In a recent statement, Professor N’Dow emphasized the high maternal and neonatal mortality rates in the country and expressed his commitment to offering outstanding medical care through the Horizons Clinic.
He highlighted the unfortunate reality that many people in Africa still die from preventable medical conditions and stressed the importance of providing world-class healthcare to residents. With the support of Afreximbank, the Horizons Clinic aims to address these challenges and offer high-quality healthcare services to all patients, regardless of their financial status.
Professor N’Dow explained that the Horizons Clinic will be the first international standard hospital in The Gambia, providing a wide range of secondary and tertiary specialist services that are currently unavailable in the country. Patients in need of specialized care often have to travel abroad at significant cost, and the Horizons Clinic aims to bridge this gap by offering comprehensive healthcare services locally.
Furthermore, the clinic will have 60 beds, a state-of-the-art outpatient department, and diagnostic services to ensure efficient and effective treatment for all patients. Additionally, local healthcare workers will have opportunities for continuing professional development to enhance the overall health system in The Gambia.
Mr. Alpha Barry, the Board Chairman of Horizons Clinic Gambia Limited, praised the support of Afreximbank and other partners in establishing the clinic. He stated that the Horizons Clinic represents a transformation in the Gambian health sector and serves as a beacon of hope for quality healthcare for all residents. Mr. Barry emphasized that the clinic will not only benefit Gambians but also serve as a model for other African countries looking to improve their healthcare systems.
Overall, the Horizons Clinic is set to revolutionize healthcare in The Gambia by offering specialized medical services, saving lives, and providing opportunities for healthcare professionals to enhance their skills. With a focus on quality care and accessibility for all patients, the clinic is poised to make a significant impact on the healthcare landscape in the country and beyond.
