AKORFA’S JOURNEY: A LIFE TRANSFORMED THROUGH EXPERT SPINE CARE

At just 11 years old, Akorfa M. Ayitey from Elmina, Ghana, noticed an unusual curve in her back. Concerned about her health, her family sought medical advice, visiting multiple healthcare facilities before finally being referred to the spine team at FOCOS.
After a comprehensive pre-surgical evaluation, Akorfa was admitted in December 2024. Thanks to the expertise of her medical team, she underwent a successful spine surgery with zero complications.
Reflecting on her experience, Akorfa shares:
“The quality of care I received from the doctors, nurses, and the entire hospital staff was truly remarkable.”
During her recovery, she actively participated in fun educational activities at the children’s classroom block and attended specialized physiotherapy sessions, which played a key role in regaining her strength and mobility.
Today, Akorfa stands tall—strong, healthy, and full of confidence.
She extends her heartfelt gratitude to 33 Spine Align, whose generosity made her surgery possible, and to Dr. Yankey and the entire FOCOS spine team for their dedication and expertise in transforming her life.
“May the good Lord bless all the staff of FOCOS and everyone who contributed to making my surgery a reality. Because of you, I can pursue my dreams in good health.”
