Residents want more services at Suddie Hospital

The Suddie Hospital

While residents on the Essequibo Coast are pleased with the services they have been receiving at the Suddie Hospital, they are calling for an endoscopy specialist to be sent to the facility so as to avoid them being referred out of the area. 

They told this newspaper that it is very expensive and inconvenient for them to travel to the West Demerara Regional Hospital or to the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHC) to have the test done. 

The residents called on the government to ensure that a specialist is available at the hospital to conduct the tests so to make life easier for them.
