Medihelp Hospitals, continues its expansion with the opening of its newest branch in Kiribathgoda, marking a significant milestone in bringing quality, accessible healthcare closer to communities. This latest addition reinforces Medihelp’s commitment to expanding affordable, high-quality healthcare, particularly in underserved areas.
Having strengthened its presence across the Colombo and Kalutara districts, the Kiribathgoda branch represents a strategic move into the northern corridor of Colombo.
The facility was recently inaugurated at a ceremony attended by Dr. Upali Pannilage, Minister of Rural Development, Social Security, and Community Empowerment, and Dr. Sandun Yapa Karunaratna, Chairman of the Kelaniya Pradeshiya Sabha. A key highlight of the event was the address by Leslie Wijesiriwardana, Founder and Chairman of Medihelp Hospitals, who reflected on the organization’s origins. He noted that the Medihelp concept was first established in Kiribathgoda as a diagnostic laboratory in 1979 before relocating to Horana in 1985, making this expansion a meaningful return to its birthplace. “We are proud to open a Medihelp branch in Kiribathgoda, the very place where our journey began,” he said
Chandika Wijesiriwardana, Managing Director of Medihelp Hospitals Group. “We believe that quality healthcare should not be limited by geography. It must be accessible, convenient, and available when people need it most. This new facility ensures that individuals and families can access reliable and timely medical care closer to home.”
