An overwhelming demand for free dental services has forced St Peters Orthopedic and Surgical Specialty Centre in Muthiga, Kiambu County, to extend the offer for one week.

St Peters Orthopedic and Surgical Specialty Centre this week teamed up with a team of doctors from India to offer free dental check-ups and discounted prices for all dental procedures.

“We have decided to extend the offer for another one week in order to help as many Kenyans as possible," Dr Gerald Wasena, the director of medical services at the facility, said.

Matthew Nzioka was all smiles after getting a dental procedure at a discounted rate.

“When I heard about the medical camp, I reluctantly decided to check it out, thinking it would be unaffordable. I just want to thank the hospital and the team from India for their sacrifices. I wish they could be doing this more often," Nzioka added.

It's been literally a thorn in the mouth of many Kenyans. 

For example, tooth replacement procedures have been discounted to very affordable rates at the centre.

St Peter's Orthopedic Hospital is a renowned surgical speciality centre.

With a commitment to excellence in healthcare,  the facility has been serving the community for years. The hospital is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and staffed by a team of medical professionals, including skilled surgeons, experienced nurses, and support staff.

Services offered include orthopaedic consultation, fracture care, spine care, arthroscopic surgery, and pediatric orthopaedics.
