Integrated Healthcare Missions
AIHWA integrated healthcare missions bring internationally-trained physicians to Nigeria for both long- and short-term care. Since its inception only three years ago, AIHWA has impacted nearly 25,000 lives.
Free Vision Care Outreach, Feb 2-7, 2025
Dr. John Wroblewski and Dr. Marie Annie Banville from the United States visited the aihwa Hope Center from February 2 to February 7, 2025, for a diabetic retinopathy campaign and workshop that included free general health services for over 1,200 patients. Like his previous visit in 2024, Dr. Wroblewski taught Nigerian ophthalmologists and optometrists how to use some of our special equipment at the aihwa Integrated Medical Clinic to examine patients and provide various treatments.
Throughout the week and beyond, AIHWA provided many patients with free medications, screenings, and treatments. Those in need of vision correction received free eyeglasses, and multiple patients with diabetic retinopathy benefited from complimentary laser surgeries and treatments. Additionally, many patients underwent free cataract surgeries.
