From routine check-ups to complex inpatient procedures, Gilgil Annex Hospital brings advanced medicine within reach of the communities of Gilgil, Kikopey and the wider Nakuru County.
What we do
Nine departments working as one team — so a referral never means a long journey, and a diagnosis never waits.
How care works
A care journey designed around patients — not paperwork. Here's what to expect at every step.
Walk in, call, or send a WhatsApp message — any hour, any branch.
Triage first for urgent cases, then a clinician who listens before treating.
Same-visit lab and imaging so diagnosis and treatment happen without delay.
Clear follow-up plans, medication guidance and a team that checks on you.
Not sure where to start? Describe your symptoms on WhatsApp and our team will guide you to the right department — or book you straight in.
Ask on WhatsAppOur philosophy
Gilgil Annex Hospital was built on a simple conviction: that world-class medicine should not require a journey to the city. Our multi-branch network bridges the gap between urgent medical need and long-term wellness — treating illness, yes, but also fostering a culture of well-being across the entire Nakuru region.
Every branch is anchored by clinical excellence: advanced laboratory and radiology departments, specialized clinics, and teams who know the families they serve by name.
Our full storyAdvanced diagnostics and specialist care without the referral runaround — quality medicine close to home.

Professional warmth is not a slogan here — it is how every shift begins and every visit ends.
