South-East Academic Doctors Mourn Dr. Uzoma Nwaubani’s Death During Abia Medical Outreach

South-East Academic Doctors Mourn Dr. Uzoma Nwaubani’s Death During Abia Medical Outreach

The Forum of South-East Academic Doctors (FOSAD) expresses deep sorrow over the untimely passing of Dr. Uzoma Nwaubani during a free medical outreach in Abia State. A United States–based physician, she collapsed while serving her home community. Her dedication to improving healthcare delivery shone through her work with the Association of Nigerian Physicians in the Americas. FOSAD joins Governor Alex Otti and local medical teams in honouring her compassion and professional excellence. Despite this tragedy, the outreach programme continues, reflecting the resilience of her colleagues and the enduring impact of her service. FOSAD calls on relevant bodies to immortalize her contributions to healthcare. Our deepest condolences go to her family, the people of Abia State, and all who were touched by her selfless work. Her legacy will inspire future generations of medical professionals.
