Faculty Biography
I received my BSc. Human Physiology in 2011 and Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery in 2014 from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology. This was followed by a Post Graduate Diploma in Education from the Valley View University, Ghana in 2017. Later an Mphil Physilogy at the Kwame Nkrumah Univeristy of Science and Technology in 2020 and Membership in Internal Medine at the West African College of Physician in 2021. I am a Lecturer at the Department of Physiology, KNUST and a Physician Specialist at the Department of Medicine, Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital. Currently I am undergoing Cardiology Fellowship with the West African College of Physicians and also a PhD candidiate at the Department of Physiology, KNUST.
