Mission
To see God glorified as people are healed, saved, equipped, and sent. We work with Christ to reach the lost in Gabon, by providing compassionate, professional medical care to all in need, and equipping Christian medical professionals to extend this vision to all of Africa.
We provide holistic ministries throughout the hospital campus. We empower medical professionals through our training programs. We develop strategies to engage the local community in innovative ways.
At Bongolo, we offer quality health care to a population who desperately needs it. To continue the good work the Lord is doing in the rainforest, we need your support through prayer, finances, and service.
HISTORY
Bongolo Hospital
Expanding on a twenty-year-old nursing dispensary, Bongolo Hospital was established in 1977, when a surgeon and two nurses arrived. A nursing school was started shortly thereafter and is still running strong.
Today, the 158-bed hospital in the rural town of Lebamba includes busy Surgery, Adult Medicine, Maternity, Pediatrics and Emergency departments, as well as one of the busiest eye-clinics in Gabon. Full- service HIV, TB, and Dental clinics round out the services.
The full-time medical team now includes four surgeons, two ophthalmologists, one pediatrician, one family practitioner/obstetrician, two internists, an anesthesiologist and many other ancillary personnel.
