Health Sector Law encompasses the legal framework governing medical practice, healthcare institutions, patient rights, and medical liability. This area of law includes regulatory compliance, malpractice litigation, health policy, and bioethics. In Kenya, health sector law is regulated by statutes such as the Health Act, Medical Practitioners and Dentists Act, and Pharmacy and Poisons Act, with oversight from regulatory bodies like the Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board (MPDB) and the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC).


Miller & Company Advocates has an extensive track record of representing clients in complex medical negligence cases and regulatory compliance matters. Our legal team regularly appears before the Medical Practitioners & Dentists Board and has successfully defended medical practitioners against claims of negligence in various courts. We advise healthcare institutions on legal risk management, regulatory compliance, and dispute resolution, ensuring our clients operate within the legal frameworks while maintaining the highest standards of care.


Our firm has represented prominent healthcare providers in high-profile medical negligence cases, achieving favourable outcomes that have shaped legal precedents in Kenya's health sector. We have also successfully defended hospitals and medical practitioners against malpractice claims, safeguarding their professional reputations and minimising legal liabilities.
