DR. SERENA HU, A SPINE SURGEON SHARES EXPERIENCES AT FOCOS HOSPITAL
Dr. Serena Hu, Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Stanford University in California, with over 30 years’
experience, paid her third visit to FOCOS Orthopaedic Hospital. The one week visit which began on July
29 and ended on August 2, 2019, was a fruitful one as Dr. Hu shares some of her experiences with
FOCOS surgeons.
Dr. Hu met Prof. Oheneba Boachie-Adjei, CEO and Founder of FOCOS Orthopaedic Hospital, when they
were both residents at the Hospital for Special Surgery, New York. Dr. Hu mentioned the fact that Prof.
has always mentioned to her his desire of coming down to Ghana to establish a hospital for those who
cannot afford expensive surgeries abroad.
She stated that Prof was a few years ahead of her in the medical field and so having heard that Prof.
Boachie-Adjei has finally established a hospital in Ghana, she decided to volunteer at FOCOS. Dr. Hu, a
lover of writing, with 16 publications to her credit, commended FOCOS Hospital for the top notch state-
of-the-art facilities. She said “Dr. Boachie-Adjei has done well in securing very good and high quality
equipment for the hospital, they are the best l have seen in Africa.”
Commenting on the personality of Prof. Boachie-Adjei, Dr. Hu said “Dr. Boachie-Adjei is one of the top
notch spine surgeons in the world. He normally takes on complex spine cases and has invariably been
successful.”
Dr. Serena Hu, visited FOCOS with her husband and daughter. She engaged in the week’s outpatient
and surgical activities and left with an admiration for the high quality care, the staff efficiency and
performance and high standard of equipment at FOCOS.
