A 20-shilling coin belongs in a coin bank/money box, not in a throat. Let’s keep our children safe.
🚨If you suspect your child has ingested a foreign body, seek immediate medical attention. Early intervention can make all the difference.

In today’s economy, a 20-shilling coin might barely buy a chocolate or cover a short distance in a matatu. We often treat them as loose change, forgotten in pockets or left on coffee tables. But for one family recently, this coin became the most “expensive” object in their world
🎒 School Bag Check: Ensure older siblings don't have loose coins in their bags that a child could find
🧐 Awareness: During the back-to-school rush or weekend getaways we are often distracted. Stay vigilant!

Tukutane Kanairo! 🎪🎬
At Surgeons001, we believe that true healing begins with knowledge. That’s why we continually take the conversation beyond the operating room into homes, communities and onto your TV screens.
Surgical Education is more than a professional duty, it’s a social responsibility.
This is what healthcare tailored to culture looks like. Wholesome. Healing. Human. Because to love our people means to understand them to the core. This is my calling. To serve them, to understand them and to treat them.

“Bule Mwanangu…” 🥺
Every time an elderly Swahili woman in her ‘buibui na mtandio’ walks in my consultation room and calls me “mwanangu” at the end of every sentence, my heart melts. I see my own mother in Faza and I am reminded why I chose this path…
The joy of seeing them recover, smile, walk lighter and improve their quality of life is unmatched. And their gratitude? It often comes wrapped in labania, mabuyu and kashata often carried as sweet tokens of appreciation on their next visit!
