“Every missed doctor appointment has a reason and every delayed treatment has a story.”

Mukwaya Paddy Founder, CHA Citizens Health Africa

For every patient who abandons the care pathway and gives up, they represent a health care system we operate that is too complex for them to navigate by themselves. See, they are cornered to make critical decisions at a time when they are sick, afraid, confused and under-resourced. We believe that, whenever there is support for patients, and that support comes in early, consistently and with a spirit of dignity, the treatment outcomes are always much better.
