The Hospital Board has appointed Dr. Daniel Asare as the Chief Executive Officer for Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
Before his appointment, Dr. Daniel Asare was the Chief Executive Officer of Cape Coast Teaching Hospital (CCTH). He has 27 years of experience in the health service with 17 of these years in Hospital Management.
He was the foundation head of the new Brong Ahafo Regional Hospital, Sunyani and was later transferred to the Eastern Regional Hospital, Koforidua, where he ably transformed the Hospital.
When the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital was being transitioned from a regional to a teaching hospital, Dr. Asare was called upon to facilitate the process as the Chief Executive. He successfully carried out this mandate and the fifth batch of doctors are completing this year. Postgraduate doctors are also being trained at CCTH.
The new CEO is a trained Otorhinolaryngologist at the West African College of Surgeons. He has also studied Health Systems at Leeds University in the United Kingdom.
Dr Asare has successfully digitized many of the operations at CCTH and hopes to bring this rich experience, with the support of staff and other key stakeholders, to bear on the fortunes of Korle Bu.
