It is a not-for-profit, private health care institution, established in 1952, that is committed to providing affordable, high-quality services in a safe and friendly environment.
The expansion of the Aga Khan Hospital in Kisumu began in 2021, with a planned total cost

The hospital has now been transformed from a 70-bed acute care facility into a 116-bed secondary to tertiary hospital, equipped to provide advanced clinical programs in cardiology, oncology, neurosciences, and critical care. We also offer neo-natal critical care and maternal and child health care.
The hospital’s facilities include relevant diagnostics, integrated operating rooms, and a
sophisticated accident and emergency department. Additionally, the expansion project includes the implementation of new elements in cardiology and cancer programs, as well as the establishment of 10 new Outreach Health Centers (OHCs).
