Kalafhi Medical Center celebrated its 7th anniversary
One of the group's success story is the opening of the Kalafhi Day Hospital at Fairgrounds Mall which began its operations towards the end of last year. Dr Matlhogonolo Mongwa-Mouwane, founder and Chief Executive Officer of Kalafhi, reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to elevating Botswana’s healthcare standards. "Kalafhi has always been about innovation, accessibility, and excellence in patient care. The opening of Kalafhi Day Hospital is not just a milestone for us, but a transformative moment for Botswana’s healthcare sector. Our vision is clear—we are here to provide world-class medical services and ensure that Batswana no longer have to seek specialised treatment abroad," she said.
