What I'm looking for

I am seeking a patient-centred clinical role with opportunities for surgical training, research and health-systems improvement in a collaborative environment that supports professional growth and quality improvement.

I am a Medical Officer with four years post-internship clinical experience and I am currently pursuing a Master in General Surgery at Moi University. I deliver holistic, patient‑centred care across inpatient and outpatient settings and perform minor surgical procedures in General Surgery and Obstetrics & Gynaecology.

As Medical Officer in Charge at a private facility, I led clinical, diagnostic and pharmacy departments, coordinated continuing medical education activities, managed operational and patient-safety risks, and prepared reports to support executive decision-making. I liaised with specialists to ensure quality multidisciplinary care and drove quality improvement initiatives.

I hold certifications in Point-of-Care Ultrasonography (POCUS), research writing, global health research, leadership and management in health, and BLS/ACLS. I combine strong communication and MS Office skills with a commitment to systems improvement, collaborative practice, and evidence-informed clinical care.
