On Tuesday, 2nd June, 2026, I was finally inducted into the medical profession.
I emerged as the best graduating student and only 7-star general in the history of Obafemi Awolowo College of Health Sciences, Olabisi Onabanjo University @oou_agoiwoye.
I was inducted into the medical profession yesterday 🩺
A journey of resilience, growth, and God’s grace. Grateful for every step that brought me here and for everyone who was part of the journey💗
Overheard in the ED:
Patient: If I get admitted and I need open heart surgery will they take them (breast implants) out?
Nurse: I don’t think so but, let me ask your doctor.
Reader: I was the doctor.
Too many quacks out there mehn.
Another reason why you should go to the hospital and see an actual doctor for proper evaluation and management.
Bleeding gums, easy bruising, ecchymosis.
FBC showed thrombocytopenia.
And you were given astyfer???
Doctor: What’s bothering you today?
Patient: I’ve had hiccups for weeks now. Water stops it briefly, but it always comes back.
Most patients trivialize this symptom.
But persistent hiccups are never “just hiccups.”
Before more history, what’s your differential diagnosis?
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” — Steve Jobs.

1. A doctor only gives corticosteroids without tapering is a dangerous doctor
2. A doctor who doesn't know how to taper corticosteroids needs to cover that knowledge gap.
3. A doctor who refuses to monitor a patient on long term corticosteroids for complications has not done well.
Let me share something from my last surgery experience.
A few minutes after this picture was taken, one of the nurses came over and asked when I had last shaved my pubic area. I told her five days before. That wasn't good enough. They needed to shave me again right there.
A female nurse was given that task. And honestly? At that moment, I couldn't have cared less about her seeing me. I could tell it meant nothing to her either. From bits of conversation I caught between her and her colleagues (nurses talk, a lot), she had an exam that same morning. She had that on her mind, yet she calmly lifted the surgical gown and got the job done.
When I came out of surgery, I woke up with two tubes in my body. The first was a nasogastric tube, passed through my nose down into my stomach for feeding. The second was a urinary catheter, inserted into my penis to handle urination. Two days later, when it was time to remove the catheter, a female doctor, Dr. Adewunmi, was the one who did it. And no, she didn't do that without seeing or touching my penis.
Here's the point I'm getting at. A patient's private areas are typically covered during surgery. But depending on what kind of surgery it is, one or more members of the surgical team will likely see part or all of the patient's body. The difference is that these professionals are trained to treat every patient with dignity and to avoid being any more invasive than the situation requires.
I’ve been doing a lot of lowkey advocacy for sickle cell and just recently became the clinical lead for a sickle cell app that will be the best thing that ever happened to any sickle cell warrior.
I’d be talking a lot about SIKILA in the coming weeks and I’m really excited.
"Little or no government support".
Favorable government policies is all industries need from the government to survive and scale.
These policies increases the middle class subset, who in turn drive the day-to-day demands of these industrial products.
