Clinical Services The Department’s overall activities are back to pre-Covid-19 levels, with the import- ant difference being an emphasis on more efficient care, especially with the resource pinch that we continue to experience. The University and members of SURRADIC faculty remain firmly committed in providing evidence- based high quality health care at the tertiary and quaternary level. Our Radiology Division saw increased investments in modern diagnostic and interventional technologies while Emergency Medicine and Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Divisions continue to provide the high quality service expected. There continues to be success in major surgeries such as our involvement in liver transplantation and should be commended, however, leveraging these successes remains a challenge. In order for the faculty to excel, this must happen, and the Department is aware of this.
