Our History

We began our medical evacuation services in August 2006 as Eti Health and Leisure cc, initially offering a four-star, 12-bedroom guest house and a 30-seater West African cuisine restaurant. In March 2007, we expanded into hospitality and tourism, successfully managing over 200 medical cases from 2006 to 2019 while serving clients globally. In April 2019, we shifted our focus solely to medical evacuations, leading to the establishment of MEDICAL RESCUE 911 Pty Ltd in January 2022. This decision proved vital, as we handled four major cancer cases in the early part of the year.

Medical Tourism 911 Pty Ltd was created to save lives through our medical evacuation services, ensuring immediate appointments and rapid access to specialists in every medical field.

What Some of Our Medical Partners Say

Dr JI Raats

I am writing to express my strong endorsement for Ziggy Owei and Medical Rescue 911 Pty Ltd,
operating here In Cape Town. As an oncologist specializing in cancer treatment, I've had the
opportunity to work with several patients who have benefited greatly from their services. Medical
Rescue 911 facilitates access to vital cancer treatments and care not readily available in Nigeria,
enabling patients to receive the best possible care in a timely manner.

Ziggy’s commitment to coordinating every aspect of the patient journey, from initial consultation to
post-treatment follow-up, is truly exceptional. This attention to detail significantly reduces the stress
and burden on patients already grappling with a serious illness. Her dedication to ensuring patients
receive timely and appropriate treatment is evident in the positive outcomes I’ve witnessed.

I've been particularly impressed by the prompt communication and seamless transfer of medical
records for the patients. The professionalism and compassion demonstrated by Ziggy makes a

significant difference in patients' overall experience, ultimately contributing to their improved well-being and chances of successful treatment process.

I highly recommend you facilitate prompt visa services for clients of Medical Rescue 911 Pty Ltd,
seeking access to high-quality cancer care in South Africa. Their expertise and commitment to patient
welfare are truly outstanding.

What Our Clients Say

Nemiworio D

I am from Nigeria. Eti Health and Leisure was really amazing. My son had serious medical conditions. He had meningitis at the age of one year and two months so he became paralyzed for years and later started walking but on his toes, always falling down because his legs were bent and he could not put his feet down flat on the ground. He was not able to walk normal and properly and doctors gave up hope on him and say it was not possible to handle his condition. In 2008, Eti Health and Leisure stepped in and moved my son to South Africa for medicals and that which 'could not be handled' according to doctors was taken care of. My son was operated upon and different treatments were also administered on him so he was able to walk and put his feet down. Since then, I have been taking my son to South Africa almost every year through Eti Health and Leisure for medicals. I took my son through them in 2008, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2016. I am so happy that we made the right choice of using Eti Health and Leisure. Also, Ziggy is a very wonderful person. She treats her patients with so much respect and Love. She is very caring and cheerful and there is no dull moment with her. Her staff are very respectful, loving and caring. Eti Health and Leisure is very professional in handling issues and are very transparent. I am presently making arrangements on taking my son again for medicals through them under the new name, Medical Rescue 911 Pty Ltd. They are the best!
