The emergency surgery was conducted at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) after doctors promptly transmitted CT scan images, ensuring immediate readiness for the operation.
“Doctors at Kenyatta were prepared, and I was operated on right away,” Mr. Robert expressed gratitude for the swift care. The success of this operation underscores KCRH’s commitment to enhancing patient care through technological innovation, as highlighted by Dr. Musyoka.
