Get expert Public-Private Partnership (PPP) solutions
At SYNLAB, we are committed to excellence in medical laboratory services. That’s why we’ve been providing world-class diagnostics since 2004. Our goal is to deliver the highest standard service in state-of-the-art medical diagnostics and to be the partner of choice for government institutions, health professionals, and patients across Nigeria.
We are committed to ensuring the healthcare objectives of the government are achieved. One of the ways we support the government is through Public-Private Partnerships, whereby we partner with public sector organisations to provide world-class medical diagnostic services to the people of Nigeria.
We invite you to leverage our international diagnostic capabilities, robust and expansive test portfolio, ISO-accredited laboratories, and 18 years of experience in delivering accurate and reliable medical test results within the Nigerian healthcare sector. To strengthen our partnerships, we have developed a framework that covers the following solutions:
Main services
Point of care Testing
SYNLAB can provide Point of Care Testing (POCT) operations and integrate them with hospital IT systems and the central laboratory. POCT enables more rapid clinical decision-making in the process of diagnosis, treatment choice and monitoring, and prognosis, as well as operational decision-making and resource utilisation.
On-site Laboratory Operations
SYNLAB can offer a range of managed laboratory solutions. The size and complexity of the on-site laboratory can be developed around the hospital’s unique requirements. SYNLAB works with you to design a solution that balances clinical needs and operational efficiency to ensure the best value for money.
Management Solutions
Integrating SYNLAB into the management of your laboratory services can optimise your laboratory and patient-centred services. SYNLAB will manage the laboratory on your behalf, but the hospital remains the full operator of the laboratory.
Send-out Testing
By partnering with us, you will be able to send us your routine checkups and free up your resources to focus on the areas of your choice, or you can make use of our scientific exposure and send us your specialised diagnostics. The choice is yours.
Additional services
You can add professional advice and consult to your hospital laboratory services and patient care by partnering with SYNLAB.
We have also created a local and international training programme for people living in Nigeria. Our training involves:
International Training
SYNLAB can also offer training placements at any of its international facilities. Leading hubs include advanced laboratories in Spain, Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, and Hungary.
Our growing portfolio of Government partnerships is a testament to our ability to always deliver value and impact, underpinned by an expansive logistics network across Nigeria. Our reach covers all major geographical regions with 33 centres that include a sophisticated, 24-hour operational reference laboratory, regional laboratories, and patient care centres across 12 States. Some of our Public-Private Partnerships in Nigeria include:
- LUTH, Lagos State
- DELSUTH, Delta State
- Maternal and Child Centre Ajah, Lagos State
- King David’s University, Ebonyi
Our unique operations model ensures that every partnership we enter benefits from fast turnaround times for routine testing and has access to the most advanced laboratory testing and advisory services in the world through our extensive referral laboratory network across Europe. As our partner, we will support you in the following ways:
- Cost-optimised and standardised process flows
- Revenue optimisation
- Accessible medical expert advice
- Stage diagnostics and special analysis (Genetics, Microbiology, Pathology)
- Security and competence of an efficient global network
- Organisation and quality management including point-of-care systems (POCT)
- MRSA screening and facilitated efficient drug use

At SYNLAB, we pride ourselves in delivering world-class diagnostic services. Here’s what some of our partners have had to say:
