About Hopital Libanais Android App

The Lebanese Hospital Geitaoui, one of the first hospitals in Lebanon, was founded in 1927 by father Joseph Selwan Geitaoui. The hospital administration was entrusted by the founder to the Congregation of the Maronite Sisters of the Holy Family established by Patriarch Elias El Hoyek in 1895.

As a multidisciplinary care hospital, the Lebanese Hospital Geitaoui is a religious non-profit hospital with mission to treat all patients without any exception regardless of race, class or creed. It is a Church property, a Wakf, and benevolently is administrated. The medical body is carefully selected and acts as a liberal profession.

The board of directors is headed by Mother Gabrielle Bou Moussa, Superior General of the Maronite Sisters. Sister Hadia Abi Chebli and Doctor Pierre Yared assume the general management.
