St. Thomas Eye Hospital has been recognised as the Best Eye Hospital at the 9th Ghana CEO Summit, held on May 26 at the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City in Accra.
This accolade underscores the hospital’s commitment to excellence in eye care and its significant contributions to Ghana’s healthcare sector.
Under the leadership of Dr. Michael Ekuoba Gyasi, Medical Director and CEO, St. Thomas Eye Hospital has become a beacon of innovation and compassion in ophthalmology.
Established in 2010 as the North Western Eye Centre and rebranded in 2014, the hospital has pioneered advanced surgical procedures, including phacoemulsification cataract surgery and micro-incisional vitrectomy, setting new standards in eye care within Ghana.
Dr. Gyasi’s vision extends beyond clinical excellence. He has been instrumental in forging international partnerships with organizations such as Unite for Sight, Charity Vision International, Bright Sight Mission and the New England Medical Centre at Tufts University, facilitating annual advanced vitreoretinal surgical services for patients unable to afford such procedures.
His advocacy also led to a significant donation of ultramodern eye equipment from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, enhancing the hospital’s diagnostic and surgical capabilities.
The hospital’s commitment to social responsibility is evident through its outreach programs, which have provided over 10,000 free sight restoration surgeries and screened more than 200,000 individuals for various eye diseases, ensuring that no one goes blind due to poverty .
The Ghana CEO Summit serves as a premier platform for business leaders, policymakers, and industry experts to engage in high-impact discussions aimed at driving economic transformation.
This year’s summit, themed “Leading Ghana’s Economic Reset: Transforming Business and Governance for a Sustainable, Futuristic Economy,” highlighted the critical role of leadership and innovation in shaping Ghana’s future.
The recognition of St. Thomas Eye Hospital at such a significant event not only celebrates its past achievements but also sets a benchmark for excellence in Ghana’s healthcare sector.
As the nation continues to prioritise quality healthcare delivery, institutions like St. Thomas Eye Hospital exemplify the impact of dedication, innovation, and community engagement.
