The clinic offers a range of clinical services, including general physician diagnoses, referrals, minor surgical procedures, prescriptions, and access to an internal pharmacy and laboratory. By providing these essential services, Snapper Hill Clinic aims to deliver cost-effective and quality healthcare to the Monrovian population, addressing a critical need in the region.
