Iwosan Lagoon Hospitals, one of the largest private tertiary healthcare organizations in West Africa has veered into a rising supply of wellness services as it unveils a high-tech medical facility in Victoria Island Lagos.

The multi-specialty hospital is manned by a team of international healthcare experts, and advanced medical equipment, including a catheterization laboratory (Cath Lab) and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan.

The 27-bed facility offers a wide range of primary, secondary, and tertiary healthcare services and is positioned to be the hotspot for advanced cardiology and cardiac surgeries.
