Iwosan Lagoon unveils medical facility to boost healthcare access in Lagos

Iwosan Lagoon Hospitals has launched its first medical facility in Alaro City, Lagos, aiming to enhance healthcare access in the rapidly developing residential and light-industrial settlement. The new outpost clinic will offer general outpatient and emergency services, serving as an entry point into the broader Iwosan Healthcare system.

Dr. Olubisi Oyeniran, Managing Director and CEO of Iwosan Lagoon Hospitals, stated that the expansion into Alaro City is a strategic move to anticipate and meet the future health needs of the growing community. He highlighted the partnership with Alaro City's developers as crucial for planning essential infrastructure. The vision includes scaling the facility to secondary and tertiary healthcare levels as the city expands.

This clinic will function as one of our outposts and one of the doors into the Lagoon healthcare system and the Iwosan Healthcare, which is also made up of Paelon Memorial Hospital, Euracare, and Iwosan Wellness. If there is any reason to provide further care, we then get you into the bigger group from this outpost. As the city and healthcare demand grow, our vision is to build secondary and tertiary healthcare facilities here in Alaro City. We are working with the development plan of the city.

Iwosan Lagoon Hospitals, recognized for its commitment to high-quality patient care with multiple Gold Seal approvals from Joint Commission International, aims to integrate top-tier medical standards into new urban developments. Dr. Ngozi Onyia, Managing Director of Paelon Memorial Hospital, emphasized the need for supportive government policies, including favorable tax relief and funding, to sustain such high-standard healthcare operations in Nigeria.

The project is designed for scalability, with plans to evolve into a comprehensive medical center. Dr. Oluwatomi Kogo, Managing Director of Iwosan Lagoon Outpatient Clinic and Iwosan Wellness Centre, indicated that within the next 12 months, the facility intends to expand its services significantly, providing end-to-end medical care for residents.

Iwosan Lagoon brings a track record of top-tier quality standards to the development, highlighted by its historical distinction as the first hospital in Nigeria to achieve Joint Commission International accreditation, alongside industry benchmarks like SafeCare Level five standards and collaborative partnerships with institutions like Mayo Clinic in the U.S.
