About Soul Place

Our Story

How a commitment to bringing genuine specialist surgical and medical expertise to Abuja became SoulPlace Surgery — a clinic built on clinical rigour, personal care, and the belief that where you live should not determine the quality of healthcare you can access.

Overview

SoulPlace Surgery was founded on a simple but significant observation: too many Nigerians seeking high-quality surgical and specialist medical care were leaving the country to find it. The costs, the travel, and the separation from family and support systems that this required were not things most patients should need to accept.

We set out to change that. Based in Maitama, Abuja, SoulPlace was built to deliver specialist plastic surgery and family medicine at the standard patients would expect anywhere in the world — within their own community, guided by a team who understands the local context and genuinely cares about long-term outcomes.

Dr. Josiah Gana leads our surgical practice with international training and a rigorous, evidence-based approach to aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. Our family medicine team brings the same commitment to clinical excellence to chronic disease management, preventive care, and women’s health — offering continuity of care that most specialist clinics simply do not provide.

We are not a high-turnover clinic. We limit our consultation slots intentionally, because we believe the consultation is the most important part of any patient’s journey. The time we invest understanding your goals, concerns, and anatomy at the outset is what makes the difference between a result that meets expectations and a result that exceeds them.

What this page covers

Why we exist

Nigeria has a significant shortage of specialist surgical expertise relative to its population, and a culture of medical tourism that costs patients time, money, and the emotional toll of recovery far from home. We exist to provide a credible, high-standard alternative in Abuja — bringing the quality of care patients expect abroad to the place they call home.

Our approach

Every patient is seen by a specialist — not a junior doctor following a protocol. Consultations are never rushed. We use digital imaging for surgical planning, set realistic expectations openly, and follow up proactively after every procedure. We do not take on cases we cannot perform to the highest standard.

Our community

Our patients come from across Abuja, the wider FCT, and neighbouring states, as well as Nigerians returning from the diaspora for planned surgical care. We also receive patients from across West Africa who choose Abuja for its infrastructure, security, and the quality of specialist care available here.
