Dr. Richard Kalungi has chosen rare path in the practice of medicine. Although the common practice in Uganda is for anyone seeking medical attention to visit a health facility, Kalungi is pioneering a concept of doctors visiting patients in homes, work places, and schools. Kalungi and a team of others offer the full range of services from consultation, to treatment and recovery support. The team assesses, diagnoses, treats, and recommends referrals depending on need from the comfort of the patient’s home. Kalungi started his organisation, Home Doctors Uganda, close to a year ago after working briefly with some private hospitals. At just 28 years, he says he developed the concept while at Makerere University School of Public Health. Here, he was often among teams that traversed upcountry in camps to offer treatment to underserved people. Kalungi says his passion to help others was molded right from his childhood. He often had to care for his siblings as his mother and father were often away at work. #achieverscorner #Africalinks https://www.instagram.com/p/CFhrLRoJZpF/?igshid=qgciw9z4arpf
