He was a senior surgeon at UBH. He held one of the highest offices in the history of Zimbabwe’s medical history.
UBH has lost a brilliant surgeon, his family too. He was a loving and responsible man.
The greatest blow is on the medical fraternity. I personally worked with him and I gained a lot of knowledge and expertise from him. I must say I am truly gutted by his death.
