Cancer care in Nigeria received a boost for cancer care in Nigeria, as the Medserve-LUTH Cancer Centre retained its title as the Most Outstanding Oncology Centre in Nigeria for the fourth consecutive year, further cementing its status as a leading cancer treatment hub in West Africa.
The award was conferred at the 12th edition of the Nigerian Healthcare Excellence Award, NHEA, held in Lagos, in recognition of the centre’s sustained excellence in oncology care, innovation, and patient management.
The feat comes at a time when Nigeria continues to grapple with a rising cancer burden and growing calls for stronger local capacity to reduce dependence on medical tourism.
Located within Lagos University Teaching Hospital, the Medserve-LUTH Cancer Centre has emerged as one of the largest and best-equipped oncology facilities in West Africa, offering radiotherapy, chemotherapy and multidisciplinary cancer care under one roof.
