Remember to stay true to yourself, yet always be open to learning, work hard and never give up on your dreams even when nobody else believes they can come true but you. These are not clichés but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path.”
He further went on write “I was honored by fellow doctors. Truly it has not been easy but I give thanks. Thanks also to all my colleague doctors, the CEOs (past and present), the nurses, pharmacists, the paramedical staff etc that I’ve worked with.

Your understanding of team work coupled with your penchant for detail and an enviable sense of humor made you not only the toast of your colleagues but also the entire staff of trust hospital.
Today as we colleagues celebrate you, we do so with pride in recognition of your unique contribution to brand trust hospital.
We wish to express our profound gratitude to you for your years of dedicated service to The Trust Hospital.
