Lesotho’s Healthcare System: What Patients Need to Know

- Private & Mission Hospitals: Provide additional specialty services, quicker access, and tailored approaches for expats or visiting patients.
- New investments are steadily modernizing clinics with upgraded labs, digital records, and more specialist staff.
- Urban and rural outreach programs extend primary care to remote villages.
