This January, we join the global effort to raise awareness, reduce risk, and promote regular cervical cancer screening. Every woman deserves a future free from cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer is one of the few cancers that can be prevented. Knowledge empowers. Early action saves lives.

This past Saturday, we were delighted to host Cohort 2 of the Stitch & Knot Hybrid Laparoscopic Programme during Workshop 1. We welcomed a diverse group of OB/GYN doctors - ranging from beginners to those with prior exposure to basic skills and training boxes - making for a dynamic and enriching start.

The day featured an inspiring session by Dr. Dennis Mureithi, complemented by hands-on practical training. It was an engaging and impactful experience for all participants.

We now look ahead to Workshop 2 this coming Saturday, with exciting milestones ahead as we continue advancing our vision: "making MIS the norm, not the exception".

Happy 62nd Republic Day!
Today we pause to celebrate our shared identity as Kenyans. As we look back and look ahead, we are thankful for those whoโ€™ve gone ahead; leaders in each industry, innovators, and everyday citizens whose dedication has contributed to the Kenya we cherish today.

Their example calls us to continue building, innovating, and improving the lives of our people. In healthcare that means, through training, innovation, and collaboration, we continue advancing safe, minimally invasive surgery for communities across the region.

Hereโ€™s to a brighter tomorrow and to making MIS the norm, not the exception.

Our Stitch & Knot Hybrid Laparoscopic Suturing Programme (Octโ€“Nov Cohort 1) concluded with a successful 2-day Hysterectomy Surgical Camp at Mary Help of the Sick Mission Hospital- Thika

After weeks of structured workshops at SurgiEdge Training Centre, guided mentorship by our trainers, and home-based practice on the Endo Bora Pelvic Trainer, our 10 trainees stepped into the OR with confidence under the supervision of the Lead Surgeon Dr Dennis Mureithi.

Their progress in suturing and knot-tying was evident, skills sharpened and readiness demonstrated as they performed the surgeries in pairs. Weโ€™re truly proud of their progress.
