Started in 1916 as a centre for treating wounded soldiers during World War I, Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital (KTRH) has undergone a transformation over the years.

The hospital, in Kisii central business district, was first upgraded into a district hospital before the elevation into a Level 5 hospital in 2007.
