It is situated at the corner of Dr David Hynd road and the MR3 highway near the Manzini Nazarene traffic lights. There is also a government funded health facility called Sobhuza Clinic. It is situated across the MR 3 highway almost opposite the RFM Hospital. Another popular facility is the St Theresa’s Clinic which is owned by the Roman Catholic mission. Other private clinics are available in different parts of the city centre. Although a bit outside the city boundary, towards the eastern part of the city along the MR 3 public road is located a prestigious private hospital called Manzini Clinic.
