MDaaS Global, the pioneering healthtech company and operator of Nigeria’s fastest-growing diagnostic network, has officially expanded beyond its home market by opening its first clinic in Douala, Cameroon under the brand BeaconPasteur Healthcare. This strategic move marks MDaaS Global’s entry into Francophone West Africa and solidifies its commitment to transforming healthcare access across the continent.
Founded in 2017, MDaaS Global has grown from a single diagnostic clinic in Ibadan, Nigeria, to a robust network of 16 company-owned clinics and 20 affiliate locations spread across Nigeria’s major cities and underserved communities. Through its flagship diagnostic brand, BeaconHealth, MDaaS Global has provided essential diagnostic services to over 375,000 patients, building trust and maintaining a net promoter score above 90. The company’s unique blend of cutting-edge technology and patient-centric care has positioned it as a leader in the region’s diagnostics sector.
The decision to expand into Cameroon’s economic capital, Douala, comes after thorough market research and strategic planning. With its favorable regulatory environment, stable currency, and higher reimbursement rates, Douala presents a significant opportunity for MDaaS Global to extend its mission of democratizing high-quality healthcare access. The expansion also responds to the pressing need for reliable diagnostic services in the region, which remains underserved despite a growing demand for comprehensive healthcare solutions.
“Our expansion into Douala is not just about geographic growth; it’s a vital step toward ensuring equitable healthcare access across borders,” said Oluwasoga Oni, CEO and co-founder of MDaaS Global. “This milestone allows us to leverage our extensive experience from Nigeria to deliver quality diagnostic care that meets the specific needs of the Cameroonian population.”
MDaaS Global’s entry into Francophone Africa is a significant milestone as it opens pathways for further regional collaborations and paves the way for future expansions in other Francophone countries. The company is set to bring its innovative technology solutions, such as Beam—a partner-focused platform—and SentinelX —a patient engagement tool—to the Cameroonian market to enhance service delivery and streamline the patient experience.
In Nigeria, MDaaS Global has seen consistent, rapid growth despite challenging market conditions, more than doubling its monthly recurring revenue since the beginning of the year. The company’s expanding footprint, bolstered by its network of over 1,500 clinical partners and 40+ HMO partnerships, has demonstrated that scalable, tech-enabled healthcare solutions can make a transformative impact.
“We are proud of our achievements in Nigeria, and this expansion signals our readiness to contribute more broadly to the African healthcare landscape,” added Oni. “By harnessing the strengths of our technology and community-based approach, we aim to replicate our impact in Cameroon and beyond.”
MDaaS Global’s commitment to addressing healthcare inequities is underscored by its continuous investment in local talent and partnerships to meet the healthcare needs of diverse communities. With the launch of the Douala clinic, the company remains steadfast in its mission to bridge the healthcare gap for Africa’s next billion.
