Asian healthcare giant, Columbia Asia, opens facility in Kenya

Columbia Asia, one of the largest and fastest-growing healthcare companies in Asia, is expanding its operations to Africa. It will serve the rising demand from the continent’s middle class for affordable, modern and efficient healthcare.

The company’s first facility in Africa – a 5,300-square-foot multispecialty clinic and diagnostic centre – opened this week in Nairobi.

The clinic is operating under a new brand, Columbia Africa. Columbia Asia, part of Seattle-based Columbia Pacific Management, has 27 hospitals and one clinic in India, Malaysia, Vietnam and Indonesia, built with an innovative business model focused on serving a rapidly growing middle class with modern and efficient multispecialty facilities located close to where patients live and work.
