    • gifty R. ★★★★★ I am Gift anthony, the husband to Vivian anthony and the new born baby Brielle anthony… first I want to say thank you lord for everything.

    • isaac U. ★★★★★ I had an open Appendictomy procedure (Appendix surgery) at Savealife Hospital, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The doctors explained everything clearly and reassured me throughout the process, while the nurses showed incredible care and compassion during my recovery. The theatre was well-equipped, the environment was clean and calm, and I felt safe every step of the way. What truly stood out for me was the personal attention — I wasn’t treated like just another patient but like someone whose comfort and healing truly mattered. I’m grateful for the excellent care I received and would confidently recommend Savealife Mission Hospital to anyone. #Thank you DrSavealife.
    • Praise O. ★★★★ If you value your life and safety of what is left of your health, please do not visit this hospital. I was there about 2 weeks ago to register for antenatal and my goodness! The state of their scanning room and toilet was disheartening, going by how much they charge for VIP package. The scanning room was very tiny and tight, not properly ventilated and not clean, then their toilet smelled so bad, I had to hold my pee for hours till I went home -also, there was no tissue in there, you’ll have to go ask the receptionist for a tissue which she’ll bring out a roll of tissue and cut some for you to go clean up with, it was giving general hospital in a village setting. Now that was just the small issues. The doctor that attended to me seemed like an IT student as he was so clueless about a lot of things, none of my questions nor concerns did he address, he couldn’t even properly interpret my scan result -thank God I already started my antenatal abroad before I came home, I’d not have had any clue on what’s going on in my stomach using their scan result. Long and should have the story is that save a life is not a standard health care establishment. The hospital building is fancy and attractive but that’s the only thing they have going for them. Every thing else is nothing to write home about. Don’t gamble with your life, save a life isn’t where you should visit.

    • Marrie G. ★★★★ Held a grieving grandmother whose daughter died while giving birth. Grandmother and grandchild held captive for a year!
    • Eberechi A. ★★★★ A very devastating place, under staffed, dirty bed sheet, mosquitoes in the room, refrigerator not working with roaches inside. No emergency skill at all. I regret ever bringing my sister to this place. It took us 4 hrs to get attended to even in an emergency situation.

    • Joe D. ★★★★★ I really love everything about PAMO....it's truly giving its best to the society,for the betterment of lives& of healthy living..truly health is wealth...God bless PAMO university of medical sciences
    • Bill O. ★★★★ If you're not on a scholarship avoid this school. I repeat avoid this school because you'll regret wasting your money to suffer. The staff particularly the coordinator for 100 level is abusive towards students and rude. I have witnessed him slapping and pushing a friend of mine in front of everyone embarrassing them simply because he forgot his calculator and realised even before the exam started. How can a staff prey on a student like that and nothing is being done about it. Secondly the boys hostel is extremely disgusting. Infested with bed bugs and horrid toilet facilities. Don't believe the images you see on the website. Those pictures are exactly what you'll not see. The school is extremely disorganised and there's no central information system. They do not consider students who travel long distance. I had to post this anonymously because who knows the evil this school would do to me if they saw this. The image portrayed online about this school is a mirage
