I am a trained Clinician operating a community pharmacy, The main aim of the project is to offer medicines at a lower cost to community members. I was born and raised in a rural town at the coastal region of Kenya. Growing up life wasn't particularly easy. I struggled with Asthma and this meant that I was in and out of hospital crucially missing classes during my primary school. I actually had to repeat a class after missing my exams in Class 3 due to illness. Despite all these challenges, I worked hard in school to fulfill my dreams of being a Doctor. Went to the university and qualified a a Clinical Officer. To give back to my community I opened a community pharmacy that offers medications at subsidized rates on top of doing consultation for ailments and offering health education
I operate a clinical pharmacy in rural town in Kilifi, this pharmacy provides prescription and over the counter medications at affordable cost to the community. Medical costs have become expensive to bear for many community members. They are mostly paid for out of pocket funds from family this puts a strain on the family budget. To assist my community my pharmacy offers subsidized medication at a lower price than most of other pharmacies.
