Kenya’s persistent healthcare crisis has been found to have a big professionals distribution problem that has left Nairobi with nearly half of all practising doctors and more than 70 per cent of dentists, a newly released sector report says.
The findings of the national survey released last Thursday indicate that the Kenyan capital has nine times the number of healthcare workers as there are in some of the farflung regions, confirming reports of entrenched inequality in access to health services across the country.
