Regency Medical Centre Dar es Salaam

 

Regency Medical Centre is an innovative and dependable Multi Speciality Hospital in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, equipped with state of the art technology. The objective of Regency Medical Center is to ensure that each and every citizen of Tanzania can get affordable medical assistance.

Regency Medical Center, one of the most reputed Multi Speciality Hospitals in Dar Es Salaam, was founded in 1999 with the sole aim to ensure that medical facilities were available to Tanzanian citizens on an equitable basis. What’s more, it aimed at helping people be able to physically access the treatment from experts without having to travel anywhere.

Going abroad to get treatment is often very expensive. Medical tourism prevents people with smaller budgets or local insurances from accessing good medical care. This is why, we, at Regency Medical Center, have shifted the focus from sending people abroad to bringing in a pool of respectable doctors who are experts in their fields right here to Tanzania.

When this hospital was started, the founders also wanted to ensure that they could provide a local place where talented and qualified people could find jobs. For many years, the people of Dar Es Salaam have had to go abroad to look for decent jobs. But with Regency Medical Center, things have changed.

 

We have over 350 direct employees and over 150 indirect employees at Regency medical Center to provide optimum care and treatment to our patients. With more than 40 in house doctors and 50+ visiting doctors, we always try to serve any and all ailments of our patients.

We have more than 100 beds here at Regency Medical Center. We don’t just talk about providing optimum care but also ensure that we have the ware withal to back it up. Our state of the art facility with modern equipment and highly qualified doctors make sure that the process of testing>>diagnosis>>treatment can happen quickly and effectively.
