With advanced hepatopancreatobiliary infrastructure, Life Kingsbury Hospital offers Whipple's Procedure for eligible patients requiring complex pancreatic or upper gastrointestinal surgery. Established in 1918, the accredited hospital is located in Cape Town, South Africa, and has 212 beds.

The procedure removes the head of the pancreas and may include removal of the duodenum, gallbladder, and part of the bile duct. The digestive tract is then reconstructed to restore the flow of food and digestive fluids. Before surgery, a multidisciplinary team evaluates the disease, imaging findings, nutritional status, and overall health.
