St. Ives Multi-Specialist Hospital has unveiled urgent care clinics, an innovative initiative aimed at bridging Nigeria’s healthcare delivery as part of its 30th anniversary celebration.

The initiative is expected to give Nigerians quick and quality healthcare services that cuts waiting time for patients even without doctor’s appointments.

“Our fertility clinic has become one of the most trusted in Nigeria, and over the years, our IVF programme has given many couples who struggled to conceive the chance to become parents,” Babatunde Okewale, founder and chief medical director, St. Ives Specialist Hospital, said during a media parley to mark the hospital’s 30th anniversary in Lagos.

According to Okewale, over 4000 IVF babies have been born in St Ives Specialist Hospital since its inception, with several other normal deliveries recorded in the last 30 years.

“We are proud of every family that has grown because of the work done in our fertility units, alongside the care we provide across pregnancy, childbirth, and childhood,” he said.
