The Problem

Africa’s healthcare is in crisis - fragile, overburdened, and underfunded.

High Infectious Burden

18% global population but 60% Global HIV, 90% Global malaria, worms.

High Chronic Load

Hypertension, heart disease, diabetes.

Bad, Expensive and Vestigial Primary Care

10k patients to 1 doctor, 75% fake drugs killing 122k kids/yr. under 5 years old, and 19 of the 20 highest global maternal and highest neonatal death rates.

Non-Communicable Diseases

Non-communicable diseases, such as hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes are on the rise; and injuries remain among the top causes of death in the Region.

As Africa urbanizes, it is caught between dismantling traditional rural healthcare infrastructure and building modern urban healthcare infrastructure. Neither functions well. So, the composite system is fragile, understaffed, inefficient and underfunded. Infectious diseases like COVID threaten to overrun this fragile healthcare system and amplify the negative impacts. Worse still, disrupting healthcare will disrupt the weak agricultural supply chain leading to increased death, starvation, and internally displaced persons (IDPs).

The Monte Sereno Health Story

Osondu – A Cancer Odyssey

Clement I. Okoh, Ph.D. Founder, Monte Sereno Health

www.clementokoh.com

I founded Monte Sereno Health to transform healthcare in Africa.

We intend to move the African healthcare industry onto the web and use technology to bypass the lack of infrastructure.

The Inspiration:

I was moved to create MSH after my near-death experience with aggressive multiple myeloma

After being misdiagnosed with a muscle strain, I fell in a Lagos hospital on March 20, 2017, fractured my spine at a myeloma tumor lesion, and was paralyzed.

I flew out of Nigeria the same day with a 4 to 5-yr life expectancy and faced 6 potentially fatal complications: Stroke, PE clot, DVT clot. ATA, blood poisoning, and massive internal bleeding.

Back in the US, Dr. (Prof) Daniel Sciubba, the Director of Spinal Tumor, Deformity Surgery, and Spinal Oncology at Johns Hopkins University, led his team to remove the tumor and fuse my spine. But they thought I would never walk again. Or even stand up.

In his words:

“During your operation, we put transcranial signals down your spine and out your limbs. We got the signals out of your hands, but nothing out of your legs. If I were a betting man, I would have bet everything I had that you will never walk again”.

But I am now in complete remission and can walk well without a cane.

The Covenant - MSH:

In November 2019 I published an Amazon genre best-selling memoir about my cancer odyssey, titled “OSONDU” (Osondu is an Igbo language proverb, meaning: “One never tires of the race for life”). The final paragraph in the book’s introduction is:

“My neurosurgeon, Dr. Daniel Sciubba, said I was blessed. My parish pastor, Fr. Joe Rogers, said I am a walking miracle. After reading this book, you may agree with them. I received a clear message from running this gauntlet, and I am determined to return to Africa to help deliver affordable, high-quality medical care. My efforts will use technology to lower costs and bypass the lack of infrastructure. “

Monte Sereno Health is the result of the covenant I made during my second day in ICU, when I’d already had last rites, and wasn’t sure I would live. This is the company I founded to answer that clear message and transform African Healthcare.
