Our Story: A Vision Born, A Promise Fulfilled
Founded in 2008 by Dr. Salim Shuman, Shuman Hospital began as a dream to enhance healthcare in Sierra Leone. Dr. Shuman, born in Sierra Leone, completed his education in Europe and returned to his homeland with a vision that transcended borders. His journey started with a small clinic on Siaka Steven Street, gradually evolving into a diagnostic center, and eventually transforming into a full-fledged hospital.
Commitment to Excellence and Community
Our journey is marked by resilience and a steadfast commitment to our community. During the Ebola epidemic in 2014, Shuman Hospital became a beacon of hope, providing crucial support despite limited resources. This spirit of determination and care continued as we relocated to a larger facility on Pultney Street in 2018, officially becoming Shuman Hospital.
Expansion and Outreach
In 2020, we expanded our reach to the eastern part of Freetown by opening Shuman Hospital in Kissy, bringing quality healthcare closer to more communities. The same year, amidst a global pandemic, we remained resilient, keeping our doors open and providing care to all patients, exemplifying our unwavering dedication to the well-being of Sierra Leone.
Our Team: A Blend of Local and International Expertise
Central to our success is our diverse and dedicated staff. Our team includes local talents deeply connected to the community, working alongside international doctors who bring a wealth of global expertise. This collaboration ensures that our patients receive the highest standard of care.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to grow, our vision remains focused on expanding our services and reaching more people across Sierra Leone. We aspire to introduce advanced medical services and open new departments to cater to diverse healthcare needs.
