Sonologist at Me Cure Healthcare Limited

Me Cure Healthcare Limited is a family of 400 employees that was established in 2009 and is headquartered in Nigeria. The group started as a diagnostic company and since have ventured into eye-care, dental care, cancer management and preventive healthcare. Me Cure saw the opportunity as a dearth in medical diagnostics and quickly offered reliable investigations for more than 2500 tests to now become a household name for imaging, pathology and cardiac-care services.

During the past four years, we have launched seven healthcare diagnostic centers in Nigeria (including three public-private partnership centers signed with Abia and Ondo). We have also opened a Me Cure Eye Center, which is our state of the art ophthalmic clinic used to diagnose, treat, and perform vision-related surgeries. We’re currently working on commissioning the first oncology center in West Africa, with a tentative launch in the second quarter of 2021.
