What Cedarcrest Hospitals does

Cedarcrest Hospitals Limited is a Nigerian private multi-specialty tertiary care provider headquartered at No. 2 Sam Mbakwe Street, Gudu District, Abuja. Founded in 2008 (operating for 17+ years), the company runs five purpose-built facilities spanning Abuja (Gudu, 100+ beds; Gwarinpa, 5 beds with accredited molecular diagnostics), Lagos (Victoria Island, 50+ beds), and Niger State (Kainji and Jebba), employing 700+ qualified staff across approximately 200+ bed spaces and 124 medical machines. The network delivers a full clinical stack including orthopaedics and trauma, spine surgery, prosthetics and orthotics, general surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology, paediatrics, emergency medicine, anaesthesia and ICU, radiology, laboratory services, physiotherapy, and eye/ENT/dental clinics, supported by a cardiac catheterization lab equipped with a GE Optima IGS330 system and an Ilizarov limb-deformity-correction specialty. Patient-facing digital products include the AfyaServe Patient Portal (web and Google Play mobile app) for records and appointments and CedPay, a prepaid wallet for service payments; virtual consultation services operate alongside the physical hospital network.

The business model is primarily fee-for-service healthcare delivery (professional services revenue from consultations, diagnostics, surgeries, and inpatient care) supplemented by a prepaid virtual consultation model with non-refundable fees convertible to 12-month credit, and corporate/insurance channels via partnerships with NHIS, BUPA, MANSARD, and TOTAL. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer through physical hospital locations, complemented by self-service online booking, WhatsApp business contact, the mobile app, and health-education content marketing. Customer segments span orthopaedic, cardiac, women's health, paediatric, general medicine, and prosthetic/orthotic patients — predominantly individual consumers with institutional payer overlays. Strategic alliances include USTDA (cancer treatment infrastructure grant, 2025) and Otto Bock (prosthetic component supply). The company reports 70,000+ lifetime patients served and 201 award recognitions, with active expansion of both geography and service verticals underway.
