"Health is a person’s most valuable asset"

This profound and fundamental conviction has always guided the path of Prof. Raffaele Garofalo, an exceptional surgeon who dedicated his whole life to the defence and protection of human life. It is also the guiding and inspiring principle of Lawyer Maria Laura Garofalo, GHC Managing Director, who now carries out the entrepreneurial activity started by her father, Prof. Raffaele Garofalo, and all his relatives and collaborators, who continue to operate within GHC facilities to carry out this vital mission.

Health is your most valuable asset. The most valuable, because, as a human being, it represents your future. Persons who risk losing this primary asset must be safeguarded, cared for, assisted and protected; they must be placed at the centre of a system in which therapies and diagnostics consider patients in their psycho-physical entirety, and which constantly aim at protecting this right.

For this reason, the professional and entrepreneurial activity of each institute aims at guaranteeing the excellence of health and social care services, by always keeping in step with the times both in terms of research and scientific knowledge, and in terms of technological innovations and the implementation of highly performing organizational processes, with a particular focus on the humanisation of care.
