DR BETTY GIKONYO is the Chief Executive Officer of Karen Hospital, which she established five years ago with her husband, Dr Dan Gikonyo. Critics gave them one month to close shop, but the multi-million hospital is still running today despite several challenges. In a candid interview at her cosy home in Lavington, she shares with KIUNDU WAWERU about her life
The construction of Karen Hospital began in 2003 and in March 2006 we opened its doors and already we are an ISO 9001:2008 certified institution. As the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), it is my responsibility to persist and maintain the high standards of the hospital.
