This January, as we reset our priorities for the new year, let’s champion our health. It’s Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. Cervical Cancer is the most common cancer in Zimbabwe. Proactive health checks, like cervical cancer screening, play a critical role in early detection, as many conditions present without early symptoms. Make 2026 the year you […]
Fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus, that when severe, can significantly affect your quality of life. Stress doesn’t directly cause fibroids, but it can worsen the symptoms, leading to increased pelvic pain, heavier periods, and bloating. This happens when stress hormones like cortisol influence your body’s inflammatory response and hormone balance, exacerbating discomfort. […]
A cardiac MRI provides detailed imaging of the heart and surrounding blood vessels using magnetic fields and radio waves. This non-invasive scan helps diagnose various conditions, including coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathies, heart valve abnormalities, congenital heart defects, and inflammation of the heart muscles or lining. It also evaluates heart function and tissue viability, making […]
A bone density or DEXA scan is a non-invasive test designed to assess your bone health by measuring bone density. DEXA is highly efficient in detecting osteoporosis or bone loss, especially in women over 50 who are at higher risk. And that’s not all, our DEXA machine goes beyond just bone density analysis. DEXA is […]
Myth! Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) is a safe and effective procedure that targets fibroids without harming the uterus and offers significant relief from fibroid symptoms without invasive surgery. UFE works by blocking the blood supply to the fibroids, causing them to shrink and eventually disappear. Unlike a hysterectomy, UFE preserves the uterus. This makes it […]

An ultrasound-guided biopsy is a procedure that uses ultrasound imaging to precisely guide a needle to the area of interest, to obtain a tissue sample for testing. This method provides a safe and accurate way to assess whether cancer is present. The procedure involves no major surgery and is performed with local anesthesia, making […]
Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) is a pinhole procedure that offers relief from fibroids without the need for invasive surgery. But how do you know if you’re a good candidate for UFE? If symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or frequent urination due to fibroids are impacting your quality of life, UFE could be the […]
A Bone Density Scan (DEXA) is an imaging test that helps to assess your bone health. This is a non-invasive procedure used to measure bone mineral density, helping to diagnose conditions like osteoporosis. By evaluating the strength of your bones, a DEXA scan provides early insights into potential risks of fractures, especially in women over […]
Did you know that fibroids can make you more vulnerable to developing anaemia? This is due to the loss of iron-rich haemoglobin, which is crucial for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Anaemia can lead to several complications including chronic fatigue, and should never be ignored 🌸
