Compassionate medical doctor specialized in emergency and offshore medicine.
What I'm looking for
I am a medical doctor with broad clinical experience across hospital, primary care and offshore settings, committed to delivering high-quality acute and preventive care. I hold an MBBS from Madonna University and completed NYSC in 2019.
My recent roles include Medical Officer at Topside Medical Support (IOH Consulting) and Rig Doctor/Offshore Medic with Shelf Drilling, where I provided primary and trauma care, managed medical stocks, and supported incident investigations. I consistently maintained accurate medical documentation and coordinated referrals and disembarkations.
Earlier hospital and public-health experience includes positions at Euracare Multispecialist Hospital, Cross River State Primary Healthcare Development Agency, and as a House Officer at University of Calabar Teaching Hospital, where I managed outpatient services, ICU/post-surgical care, emergency response, and community clinical programs.
I am certified in BLS, ACLS and ITLS (American Heart Association), and BOSIET (2025), and have conducted research on HIV/AIDS prevalence in Awo-Omama. I bring strong practical emergency skills, clinical decision-making, and teamwork to roles that demand reliable, patient-centered medical care.
