UPTH Overview

The University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital treats well over 400,000 out-patients per annum, over 10,000 in-patients per annum and well over 3000 surgeries per annum.

In the last 38 years, UPTH has in collaboration with the College of Health Sciences turned out over 2000 Doctors, over 1300 House Officers and well over 100 Specialists (Consultants).  Some of UPTH trained Specialists are presently working in the USA, Britain and other European countries, Middle East etc with excellent performance reports.
