Biography

I am a Catholic nun, the Medical Director of Holy Virika Family Hospital, and the only obstetrician and gynecologist in the Kabarole district of Uganda. I feel incredibly blessed to serve here in rural Uganda, because the problem of maternal health is massive. As the only Ob-Gyn surgeon at the hospital, each month I perform approximately 200 deliveries (3-10 per day), 75 C-sections (0-5 per day) and 8 fistula repairs. Through your support we can provide more surgeries, and amplify our awareness campaigns to reach rural women who are seen as “nobodies,” but who are very important women in this country.
