Ganzouri Specialized Hospital mission is to promote healthy life & awareness about the major health problems in Egypt.

Chronic liver disease stands on the top of the list as a major health problem among Egyptian with increased morbidity and mortality. Chronic liver diseases are caused mainly by Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and Hepatitis B virus (HBV). More than (20%) of Egyptians are suffering from some forms of chronic liver disorders and approximately (14%) of them are due to Hepatitis (C) virus infection .An estimated 10 million individuals are infected with (HCV) and about (2-7%) are due to chronic Hepatitis (B) virus infection.

Hepatitis infection is not only a health issue but rather an economic and psychosocial problem .So, our goal is to screen individuals and offer guidance in reducing complications for any patient suffering from chronic liver disease. So; Ganzouri Specialized Hospital will provide a program to address this problem. This program has a concise approach to evaluating such patients and determining the need for Medical Treatment, life style adjustments, vaccination, and behavior modification
