About the Founder
“I knew Dr Ugochi from her teens and she has always been ambitious, with hunger to explore and to learn more. She gave her life to Christ as a young girl and I am glad, she remained focus, steadfast and growing. Dr Ugochi Patience Osuiwu is a real model of christian who never gives up in the face of adversity”. – Rev Jude Ndubuisi Nwachukwu, a retired civil servant and pastor of Christ Our Victory Ministries and lecturer in The Heritage Leadership Institute in Rivers State Nigeria.
“It is with great honour that I write these words about Dr. Pat—my Big Sis of Life, as I fondly call her. I met her during one of the most challenging seasons of my life, and she stood by me through it all, becoming a strong and steady support system until I was fully back on my feet. Even then, she never left for a second. From one fellowship, we journeyed together to our present home, Koinonia Global, UK. To know her is to encounter brilliance balanced with humility, intellect fused with compassion, and strength rooted in grace. Pat is an astute scholar whose depth of thought and clarity of expression command attention. She is also a loyal friend—one whose consistency and authenticity never waver, even in the most trying times. Beyond these personal virtues, Pat is a dedicated and hardworking medical doctor, committed not only to the healing of bodies but also to the restoration of souls. Her life’s work is a testimony to excellence, resilience, and empathy. Pat has devoted herself to understanding the intricacies of human suffering, particularly trauma. Her professional expertise, combined with her sensitivity to the human condition, has uniquely positioned her to write this book. — Elsie Ada Olaluwoye (BMR [PT], MSc Med.S, MCSP UK) MD/CEO, Optima Health London Physio
“I have known Dr. Patience Ugochi Osuiwu for over fifteen years, first as my undergraduate Medicine and Surgery student. Over time, we developed a relationship that transcended the classroom. One thing I know about Patience is that she is a survivor—resilient and determined, never giving up. I have seen her in her lowest moments and have been amazed by how faithfully God has revealed Himself in her life. She is my friend, sister, and daughter. We share a bond I can hardly explain; I rarely get close to my students, but she is an exception. — Prof. Olaitan Ruth-Thecla Olateju (PhD) Professor of Human Anatomy, Kampala International University, Tanzania
