Diani Beach Hospital is a private hospital in Kenya. It was established in the year 1997 by Dr. K. S. Rekhi.  Dr. Rekhi started off his medical practice in Diani in a clinic and soon realized the urgent need for a hospital in the region.  Prior to the establishment of Diani Beach Hospital patients often had to drive to Mombasa, a good 35 Kilometers away for needs that could not be met by the existing medical facilities.  Over 12 years down the line Diani Beach Hospital remains as the finest and most experienced private hospital in the South Coast of Kenya and a leading private hospital in Kenya.  

Diani Beach Hospital offers both outpatient and inpatient treatments of an international standard.  This is backed by the latest innovations in all departments with state-of-the-art equipment and diagnostic facilities.  The development of a personal relationship between the patient and doctor is of fundamental importance.  This basic philosophy coupled with the easy accessibility of the medical and support staff makes Diani Beach Hospital a truly caring hospital.
