“Totalhealth Foundation was founded in 2017 in Nigeria as an extension of services provided by parent company Totalhealth Kids Inc. a non-profit based in Maryland USA. The founder Dr. Adeteju Ogunrinde is a practicing pediatrician in the Waldorf, Maryland area, USA”.

“As a primary care provider, with past experience in many medical missions, the lack of continuity of care with the medical mission weighed heavily, and the notion of focusing on the most prevalent like Diabetes and Hypertension and sponsoring the personnel and medications became a focus”

“However once started, it became clear that this was the only avenue people had in a long time, and few people from the diaspora began offering support in other to maintain the clinic, which is being run out of a borrowed apartment. Now we are fortunate to have a clinic almost to completion while we continue currently to serve the patients”

“We have many resources and people in the diaspora willing to give, we just need coordinated efforts to do it”
