Dr. Amoh also underscored the importance of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital as a strategic referral hospital. He said it was important to improve the facilities of KATH to deliver the quality healthcare services that is expected of such a facility.

The Chairman of the Heal Komfo Anokye (Teaching Hospital) project team, Sammy Adu Boakye who received the donation commended  Dr. Collins Amo and his team from Aduro ye Herbal centre for the donation.

He reiterated that the vision of the project as spearheaded by the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, was to bring infrastructure at KATH to international standard to enhance healthcare delivery at the facility, which served about 12 regions of the country.
