The ceremonial opening, held on 21st January, 2023, was attended by Prof. Janaki Hewavisenthi, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine – University of Kelaniya, the board of directors and top management of Medihelp Hospitals, along with a host of distinguished invitees and members of staff.

Commenting on the recent opening, Medihelp Hospitals Chairman Leslie Wijesiriwardana stated, “We are delighted to step into the Gampaha District with our new facility in Kelaniya, which is a historically and geographically significant city in Sri Lanka. Marking the opening of our 15th branch in such a notable location is a privilege. Ultimately, our accelerated growth islandwide, particularly into underserved regions such as this, is driven by our deep desire to ensure that all Sri Lankans have access to affordable, quality healthcare services when they need it the most, particularly as we pass this economically challenging period in time.”
