Mahama commissions new cardiac laboratory at Korle Bu to boost heart care services
President John Dramani Mahama commissioned a newly constructed Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, restoring critical heart care services following the destruction of the previous facility by fire in March 2025. President Mahama said the facility represents government's commitment to strengthening healthcare delivery and ensuring that financial constraints do not prevent Ghanaians from accessing life-saving treatment.
The new laboratory was established under the Ghana Medical Trust Fund and is equipped with modern technology for diagnosis and treatment of complex cardiovascular diseases and other specialized heart procedures. President Mahama also announced plans to establish additional specialized healthcare centers across the middle and northern belts of the country. Minister for Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, stated the new cardiac laboratory would significantly improve early diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases and serve as a training center for medical specialists.
