About
I am originally from Ghana and came to the US for postgraduate education.
My desire to make a meaningful impact in both clinical and community settings drive my commitment to patient care, continuous learning, research and teamwork. I enjoy swimming, cooking, traveling, and experiencing new cultures—activities that keep me grounded and help me connect with people from all walks of life
Why I Chose Peoria:
I chose to pursue a residency program at Peoria because of its strong emphasis on hands-on learning, supportive faculty, and commitment to serving a diverse patient population. The program’s collaborative environment, and opportunities for professional growth align closely with my goals as a physician. Having had the opportunity to live in Peoria prior to residency, I also have firsthand experience in the balance of having access to resources available in a large metropolitan area but with a friendly midwestern town vibe.
