The Ministry of Health has ordered an intensive investigation to be conducted into the botched plastic surgery procedure of the late Lucy Wambui Ng'ang'a, performed by Body by Design clinic at Omnicare Medical Limited.
Health PS Mary Muthoni ordered Kenya Health Professional Oversight Authority to submit its report within 30 days.
"Health regulatory agencies are directed to conduct a thorough assessment of the facility and staff involved in this case to prevent further incidents of this nature," Muthoni stated.
Agencies such as the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dental Council (KMPDC) have been tasked with inspecting similar facilities nationwide to ensure compliance with health standards and patient safety.
Wambui died last Thursday after undergoing a procedure at Body by Design and was laid to rest at her home in Redhill, Kiambu.
The clinic has since been shut down following investigations that revealed non-compliance with medical regulations under Sections 4 and 15 of the Medical Practitioners and Dentists Act (Cap 253).
