St.Paul's Hospital Millennium Medical College

College Inaugurates Modern Medical Waste Incinerator Donated by Japanese Government
In a significant step towards enhancing environmental sustainability and public health, a state-of-the-art medical waste incinerator donated by the Japanese government was inaugurated at St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College on 5th Dec. 2024. The handover ceremony took place in the presence of the college’s leadership, who expressed gratitude for the generous support from Japan.
The newly installed incinerator boasts a capacity to process 70 kilograms of waste per hour, marking a pivotal modernization of the college's waste disposal system. This advanced technology is expected to significantly improve the handling of medical waste, ensuring safer and more efficient disposal while reducing the environmental footprint.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Sisay Sirgu, Provost of the college, highlighted the importance of this development:
"This incinerator represents a transformative improvement in our college’s waste management system. It reflects our commitment to sustainability and the health of our community."
The initiative underscores the growing partnership between Ethiopia and Japan in advancing healthcare and environmental initiatives. The new facility is expected to set a benchmark for effective medical waste management in similar institutions across the Country.

We are delighted to share exciting news with the college community and beyond!

Professor Senait Fisseha and Dr. Zerihun Abebe Honored for Advancing Radiology at SPHMMC
The St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College (SPHMMC) and the Radiological Society of Ethiopia have honored Professor Senait Fisseha and Dr. Zerihun Abebe for their pivotal contributions to establishing and expanding the Radiology Residency Program at SPHMMC.
The awards were presented during the 28th Annual Ethiopian Radiological Society Conference, recognizing their instrumental roles in advancing radiology training and healthcare services in Ethiopia.
Professor Senait Fisseha, Director of Global Programs at the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, was commended for her efforts in launching the Radiology Residency Program. Her work included supporting curriculum development, drafting the department’s first strategic plan, and forging a partnership with the University of Michigan’s Radiology Department. She also provided financial support for travel between the two institutions, supplied teaching aids such as tablets for residents, and facilitated access to diagnostic tools like STATdx. Additionally, her contributions extended to covering the costs of radiology fellowship training.
Dr. Zerihun Abebe, currently CEO of King Faisal Hospital in Rwanda and former Provost of SPHMMC, was lauded for his transformative leadership. Under his tenure, SPHMMC introduced critical healthcare services, including Ethiopia’s first public hemodialysis and renal transplant center and a state-of-the-art CAT-Lab. He also laid the foundations for establishing major centers of excellence in cardiology, gastroenterology, and oncology.
Dr. Zerihun played a key role in securing funding and resources, enabling the successful implementation of numerous initiatives. His leadership and close follow-up were credited with strengthening the radiology department during its formative years. “Without his leadership, the department's current achievements would not have been possible,” attendees noted during the ceremony.
A Leading Program in Ethiopia
Established in 2014, the Radiology Residency Program at SPHMMC has grown into one of Ethiopia's premier institutions for radiology specialty and subspecialty training. To date, it has graduated over 110 radiologists, accounting for 33% of the nation’s radiology workforce.
The program equips trainees with cutting-edge knowledge and skills in imaging technologies, including computed tomography (CT), ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and X-rays, enabling them to make significant contributions both locally and internationally.
SPHMMC and the Radiological Society of Ethiopia emphasized the lasting impact of the contributions made by Professor Senait and Dr. Zerihun in transforming radiology training and healthcare delivery in the country.

Our hospital SPHMMC has successfully performed its first groundbreaking open cardiac surgery for a 16 years old female patient.

Our patient came to us with easy fatiguability, shortness of breath and occasional leg swelling of 3 years duration. She had numerous visits at TASH and Cardiac Center of Ethiopia and was on the waiting list with a diagnosis of congenital heart disease - secundum ASD.

Today, after thorough planning and execution of our surgical department we have been able to conduct our first open heart surgery. The surgery led by Dr. Berhanu Hailemariam and Dr. Sisay Bekele performed autologous pericardial patch repair of the ASD.

Subsequently the patient was transfered to our newly established Cardiac ICU and was successfuly extubated and is in stable condition.

None of this would have been possible without the dedication and expertise of our exceptional department head Dr. Henok Teshome, St. Paul's administration with special thanks to Dr. Wuletaw Chanie, the Cardiac Center of Ethiopia for their consumable support & TAZMA special medical and surgical center for its invaluable contribution in kicking off the service with provison of equipments, consumables & staff

We would like to thank our Cardiac ICU staff, our OR staff, nurses, anesthesiologists, perfusionists and biomedical engineers. Their commitment and tireless efforts ensured not only the patient successful surgical outcome but also her overall well-being.  

May today be a reminder of what we can achieve as a team!

Thank you
