Hope Restored Through Surgery: Tetteh Quarshie Memorial Hospital to Offer Free Surgical Procedures
In a commendable move aimed at providing relief to many Ghanaians, Tetteh Quarshie Memorial Hospital in Mampong-Akuapem, Eastern Region, will be conducting a series of free surgeries in partnership with a team of surgeons from the United States and their in-house surgical team. This initiative is a beacon of hope for those battling specific health conditions but lack the financial means to pursue treatment.
The surgeries, scheduled to take place from 22nd September to 26th September 2025, will focus on the following medical cases:
Hernias
Hysterectomy
Plastic surgery for burns or scars on the hands
Screening for eligible patients has already begun and will continue until 21st September 2025. All screenings are being conducted at Tetteh Quarshie Memorial Hospital, giving ample time and access for those who may benefit from this life-enhancing opportunity.
While the surgeries themselves are free, it’s important to note that lab tests, x-rays, scans, oxygen, and some medications may incur charges. To participate, patients are required to present a valid NHIS (National Health Insurance Scheme) card.
This initiative not only showcases the power of global medical collaboration but also underscores the hospital’s commitment to community well-being. Residents are encouraged to spread the word to families, friends, and neighbors who may need these critical surgeries but have delayed them due to cost barriers.
