The much publicised free healthcare sponsored by Suncity Radio and
Suncity Imperial Lodge, took off as scheduled, at the Kwatire
Polyclinic, near Odumase in the Sunyani West District of the Brong
Ahafo region.

Addressing the clients before the start of the programme, the Chief
Executive Officer (CEO) of Suncity Radio, Mr Ransford Antwi, urged
them to exercise restraint, while the Doctors worked around the clock
to give them the needed treatment.

He gave the assurance that enough provisions have been made by his
outfit, to make the programme successful.

Mr Antwi used the occasion to appeal to people living around the
Kwatiri polyclinic, to have confidence in the facility and patronise
it, instead of travelling long distances to Odumase and Sunyani for
health care which could also be accessed at Kwatiri.

Doctors James Boakye Fordjour (Obstetrician Gynaecologist at Brong
Ahafo Regional Hospital), Frank Gyamfi (Surgical Specialist, Komfo
Anokye Teaching Hospital, Kumasi), Benjamin Kyeremeh (Surgical
Department, KwatiriPolyclinic and Dr Anvoh, (Acting Medical
Superintendent ) of the Kwatire Polyclinic and their supporting staff,
were on hand to attend to the near 200 patients.

A cross section of the patients interviewed by Suncity Radio,
expressed their appreciation to Mr Ransford, for his benevolence and
wished him and all his collaborators God’s bountiful blessings.

A 58-year-old man, Jude Boahen from Abesim, remarked: “I have suffered
this hernia for the past 4years; due to my inability to raise Ghc
3,000 for treatment, so I thank God for Mr Antwi and his team, for
this divine intervention.”

“I have been down with hernia for the past 20years, without cure due
to lack of funds, so on hearing about the free medical care on Suncity
Radio, I followed up and here I come today, hoping to receive
treatment. God bless these good people,” said 67year-old Pomaa Ruth
from Sunyani.

The programme ends on Sunday, April, 1st, 2018.
