On Saturday, the Globe Health Assessment Clinic opened its doors to the public, offering a range of free medical checks in line with Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The event, the clinic’s inaugural community outreach, provided ultrasound scans, full blood count tests and other diagnostic services at no cost to attendees.
Chief Executive Officer Daniel Oppong explained that the initiative aimed to help those who struggle to afford medical care. “Financial difficulties prevent many people from seeking medical attention,” he told reporters, adding that community‑based screening could identify health problems early.
Oppong highlighted the importance of early detection, urging residents to check their health regularly. “We are expecting as many people as we can. It’s been amazing the whole day,” he said, noting the overwhelming turnout.
The clinic also offered vaccinations, electrocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging during the day, and plans to make the event annual. In addition, a medical van will be deployed to reach other regions in future editions.
Residents were encouraged to take advantage of the free services, especially those who might otherwise delay checks due to cost. The clinic’s outreach underscores its commitment to community health and expanding access to diagnostics across Ghana.
