History of Guild of Medical Laboratory Directors
The Guild of Medical Laboratory Directors (GMLD) started in 1984 as Association of Private Medical Laboratory Professionals in South-Western Nigeria and Association of Private Practice Laboratory Scientist in Northern Nigeria. This later metamorphosed into the “GUILD OF MEDICAL LABORATORY DIRECTORS (GMLD)” in 1998 under the leadership of Dr. Andy Alatise.
It is worthy to note that the first private Medical Laboratory in Nigeria was founded in the early 1970s in Ibadan called ‘City Laboratory’ with the Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (MLSCN) PML No 001.
