Commendations
It’s great to see SLBMC proactively strengthening its diagnostic capabilities with CARPHA’s support.
It’s good to see things like these! We really do need well trained people in these fields!
Give it up for SLBMC and CARPHA on this collab
Now the SLBMC just need to improve the front of house service
Moves like these are always welcomed. Stay awake MSJMC
We cry down our hospital many times but the SLBMC has been saving lives and have some of the most professional medical practitioners I have known..some people have Nad experiences but some of us have had good experiences
