Kateri Clinic

Serving Full-time, 365 days a year, since May 2003.

History

Full official name of clinic is Foltz Medical Centre. (Mr. and Mrs. Foltz from the US provided funds for building renovation prior to 2002.) In 2002, Kateri Medical Services was founded at Trinity Episcopal Church in Tariffville, Connecticut to raise funds to hire medical staff at the clinic. Since 2003, Kateri Medical Services has provided funding for medical staff, equipment and medicine to operate the clinic full-time. Over time, Kateri Medical Services is reducing its contribution to the daily operation of the clinic with the goal of financial self- sufficiency by 2020.

Our Local Partners

From the start, Kateri Medical Services has partnered with The Anglican Diocese of Kaduna to run Kateri Clinic. Kateri Medical Services has provided most of the funding for staff and medicine for our annual free medical missions. The Anglican Diocese of Kaduna has managed the daily operation of the clinic, including the hiring and supervision of employees and overall operation of the clinic. Dr. Ignatius Da’ap is the Medical Officer In Charge of the clinic. Dr. Adekunle Alao supervises the overall operation of the clinic and all diocesan medical ministry outreach on behalf of the Anglican Bishop of Kaduna, the Rt. Rev. Timothy Yahaya.
