Overview
Ruhunu Hospitals (Pvt) Ltd is a fully fledged private hospital which is located in the medical hub of the Southern Province. We initiated our operations on the 1st of February 1995 and today we have become the top in many aspects in the healthcare industry in Southern Province. We are committed in providing high quality medical care that is extensive and convenient to our valued customers. A large number of people have benefited from our services since the initiation of the hospital.
Through the years we have expanded our services and facilities. At Ruhunu Hospital we provide valuable services for our clients by being pioneers in new services, quality and affordable health care in the private sector. In 2013 we expanded our hospital by opening a new wing which comprises of new channel rooms and luxury in ward rooms. What differentiates us from other health care providers is the concept of implementing innovative solutions and therefore delivering a premium quality healthcare service to our patients. We are a leading provider of patient care and diagnostic services in the Southern Province. This is due to the personalized care towards our patients and the unique services offered which consist of a fertility research Centre, Mammogram and a Dialysis Unit which are not available in any other private sector hospitals in the Southern Province. Currently we accommodate more than 100 Consultants and are seeking to expand our services in the near future.
