Laikipia's Mender Of Broken Bones
Orthopedic surgery is a field of practice focused on conditions of the muscular and skeletal system.
It involves surgical and non-surgical care for muscle and bone injuries, spine diseases, sports injuries, degenerative illnesses, tumors, and congenital disorders.
The Laikipia Health Service is fortunate to county Dr. Jean Makena Mbogori, one of the less than 100 specialist orthopedic surgeons in Kenya. She brings with her a wealth of experience working with high-profile organizations such as the Nairobi Hospital and the Apollos Hospitals.
Dr. Makena has a master's degree in medicine, specializing in Orthopedic Surgery from the University of Nairobi, with additional qualifications in the same from COSECA (The College of Surgeons of East, Central, and Southern Africa).
While at LHS Nanyuki, she has been performing orthopedic surgeries in theatre, as well as running a weekly orthopedics outpatient clinic on Tuesdays at LHS Nanyuki.
