In the year 2005 dr Prosper Moh and I have founded a NGO named FONOC:

Foundation for Northern Orthopaedic Concern.

Its purpose is to provide outreach services - from out the St John of God Hospital Duayaw Nkwanta (V/R) as the base - to the poor people in the northern regions of Ghana: Northern Region, the Upper West and the Upper East Region.

The Dutch foundation “Let’s Move Moh” has sponsored a Toyota Landcruiser - suitable for the rough roads in the north, - and cares for the maintenance of it, thanks to mr and mrs Vincent and Renée van Haren

By now many missions (click) have been made to the hospitals of Damongo , Wa, Nandom , Bolgatanga and Bawku., mainly by

dr Moh and dr and mrs de Ruijter de Wildt

Many operations have been performed in Nandom, Bolgatanga and Bawku, formerly all fully deprived from any orthopaedic care.

I am happy to tell on this place that some younger doctors got inspired by our orthopaedic mission and have gone into training for orthopaedic surgeon themselves.

Presently dr Abel Tunni from Presby Hospital Bawku has finished his training in Makarere University Kampala Uganda in July 2011 and returned to Bawku as an orthopaedic surgeon!

Dr Robert Amesiya from St Theresa Hospital Nandom has gone into training at the same University, per 1 August 2011
