Meridian Hospitals Port Harcourt was founded in 1996 as a dream project to advance the ideals of medical practice in Nigeria, beginning from our immediate locality in Port Harcourt. We set out to restore the dignity of the practice as entrenched in our policy of ‘LIFE FIRST, …….THAT NONE SHALL DIE WHO SHOULD LIVE’. This has enabled us erase the dividing line between the rich and the poor, placing utmost premium on life no matter who is involved. Accordingly, WE RESPOND TO THE HEALTHCARE NEEDS OF THE PATIENTS IN ALL EMERGENCY SITUATIONS IRRESPECTIVE OF THEIR SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS BELIEVING ALWAYS THAT IT WILL NEVER BE LATE TO DISCUSS MONEY BUT IT CAN BE LATE TO SAVE A LIFE. This has helped us save a lot of lives that would have been lost in a country where health insurance still covers less than 5% of the population.
Over the last years, we have grown into a multi-specialist hospital providing services in general and specialist care; General Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics/Gynaecology, Urology, Assisted Fertility (IVF/ICSI), Paediatrics, Optometry, Ophthalmology, Orthopaedic, Dentistry, ENT and Audiometry, Family Medicine, Physiotherapy and diagnostic support services including Automated Laboratory, Spirometry, Digitalized Imaging Unit, ECG and Ultrasound, Dialysis, Advanced Laparoscopy/Endoscopy, Intensive Unit, etc meeting global best practice. We are equipped to meet acceptable global standards in manpower and machines.
Meridian Hospitals is set to sustain its multi-specialist services orientation to the practice as well as our humanitarian services as a way of giving back to society. With two branches running and more in view, it is our goal to apply ourselves to our vision of global presence without relenting, knowing that it is always possible. We pride ourselves in quality, best practice and efficiency.
