8th July 2015 will go down in the annals of health care in Seychelles as the day the Seychelles Patients Association officially came into being.

It took just over three months from the day of the first meeting for this success. Founding members of the Association were jubilant as they heard the news from the Chairperson, Dr Bernard Valentin.

“What wonderful news ! A much needed association indeed.  We have to speak for all patients regardless who the person is,” said one member.

“Very good news indeed! Congrats to all of us founding members!” said another.
