Michael Mutua is the Executive Director at Bristol Park Hospital and the Chairperson of the Bristol Park Group of Hospitals. He has served at the helm of the hospital for over seven years now.
Bristol Park Hospital is a level 4 medical facility that was founded in 2008 in Tassia, Embakasi East, Nairobi County. The facility was established with the aim of offering quality and affordable healthcare services in the Eastlands area of Nairobi.
During a past interview that aired on Bristol Park Hospital’s official YouTube channel, Mutua explained that the needs of the local people within the Eastlands region of Nairobi informed the decision to set up a hospital in the area.
“When we opened up we looked at the kind of needs that were in this general area, you, the kind of people that live around here.
“We used to have huge traffic jams on Outering Road and I couldn’t imagine what it used to take to manage emergencies in Eastlands and we personally committed ourselves to ensuring that our services will be available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year,” Mutua explained.
He noted that the lows of the business is when he sees a dissatisfied client. He highly values positive recommendations and feedback from clients, and ensures they work round the clock to ensure they fully cover the needs of clients.
In the next 10 years, Mutua sees Bristol Park being one of the leading health researchers and care providers not only in Eastlands but also across the country. He notes that the company is looking to lock in strategic partnerships with like-minded corporates.
“We want to be that world-class healthcare service provider in the entire African continent. In 10 years, it is doable and achievable,” he says.
