Welcome to the EADG Hospital
To build an economically sustainable, center of excellence hospital that will deliver internationally accredited standard of care and become the catalyst for change in how health care is delivered in the region and Africa.
We are more than 300+ physicians, 50+ allied healthcare professionals, and others of Ethiopian origin coming together to develop and deliver high quality medical care through education and research for the people of Ethiopia, Africa and beyond.
Excellence.
Patient-Centered.
World-Class Facilities.
Specialized Physicians.
EADG consists of a consortium of 300+ physicians, 50+ allied health professionals, and others who, as members of this body, help to define its mission, select its leadership, and fund its core start-up and operating activities. EADG’s objectives are:
To build and operate a center of excellence, comprehensive, multi-specialty hospital.
To establish an economically sustainable hospital while maintaining high ethical standards, compassion and accountability.
To achieve a Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation to become a regional, and eventually international, hub for medical tourism.
To transfer medical skills and experiences to medical staff and other health personnel in the region.
Hospital development is a complex endeavor that requires forming partnerships with the right firms and institutions all sharing aligned values to deliver on the mission of the project. EADG has begun to form relationships with the right partners as part of its management plan. As a center of excellence hospital, EADG will focus on superior clinical care in an academic and research setting. To accomplish this mission, EADG will form partnerships with an academic/research hospital system, a management team comprised of experienced senior healthcare professionals, medical device/equipment providers and the appropriate investors who are committed to the mission of our hospital and Medical City Center.
Ethio-American Doctors Group (EADG) was legally incorporated as a C-Corp (for profit) in North Carolina on May 26, 2011, for the purpose of establishing a center of excellence, internationally accredited tertiary hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. EADG has grown from 12 to over 350+ physicians members and other health care providers.
