In this episode, we chat with Dr Hammed Ninalowo and Dr Chinedum Anosike. Originally from Nigeria, Hammed and Chinedum left their home country many years ago to pursue subspecialty radiology training in the US and UK respectively. But they never forgot the motherland and they wanted to make a difference in lives of millions of Africans who don’t have access to subspecialty radiology services. So, they founded Accuread, a teleradiology company headquartered in Lagos and now spreading its wings across the African continent. This episode is all about their amazing story.
