Patient vs Provider: Understanding your medical rights in Kenya— with Gideon Kamau Muturi & Anita Njeri Nyaga

What happens when a patient asks for their medical records — and is refused? And when a doctor’s personal beliefs conflict with a patient’s right to care, who does the law side with?Dr. Claire sits down with Gideon Kamau Muturi and Anita Njeri Nyaga, both Advocates of the High Court, to unpack the legal landscape that sits behind every clinical encounter in Kenya. Drawing on real cases and lived experience, they walk through patient rights under Kenyan law, the correct legal structure for informed consent, what providers and institutions can and cannot do when it comes to refusing care, access to data and what Kenya’s landmark 2023/24 health legislation means for how healthcare is delivered across the country — in both public and private hospital settings.Clear, factual, and genuinely empowering, this episode is for you, whether you’re a patient, a provider, or both.Connect with Gideon and Anita: GK Law Chambers, 32 Peponi road, Westlands.
