BEST Hospitals in Africa and Affordable Primary Care in Ghana
Tony got sick… and getting sick in Africa is not like getting sick in the US. He needed surgery in West Africa… but where could we go to get the best care?
Do we need to consider leaving Africa for the US? Are we going to regret moving to Africa because we have to keep going to the US for surgery?
Okay, okay… maybe we’re being dramatic. BUT access to quality hospitals in Africa was a concern. That sent us on a quest for the best hospitals in Africa.
We break that down for you in this video AND get to show you inside of a facility for state-of-the-art ambulatory surgery in Ghana!
For those of you who missed the video about Tony going to the teaching hospital in Accra, Ghana… check that one out to hear his story (https://youtu.be/G9IBemAmfzI) . In the comments there, someone said “the best healthcare… don’t get sick!” 😂🤣😂
That made us ask two questions…
- ❓ What happens when you do get sick?
- ❓ How do you “don’t get sick”, lol…. What’s the best preventative care options? And is there affordable primary care in Ghana?
Well, we’ve got the answers plus an interview with a doctor here in Ghana AND information on insurance and cost of care.
