Care across the distance
Monica gives families in Ghana and abroad a US clinician who reviews the diagnosis, explains it plainly, and helps you decide what comes next. And it gives men a private place to look after their health.

Thank you. Can Dr. Mensah join the call?
Why we exist
This is what most families have to work with when a diagnosis comes from home.
The scans are on a CD. Somewhere.
Fourteen relatives. Fourteen opinions.
A trip abroad nobody was sure about.
The plan, if anyone can read it.

Who Monica is for
Her mother in Kumasi was told she needs a mastectomy. Ama works in healthcare, but from 5,000 miles away she can’t see the scans or speak to the surgeon. She wants someone she trusts to look at the records before her mother decides.
His father in Accra has been told his kidneys are failing and dialysis should start soon. The family has three different answers from three relatives. Kwabena wants one specialist to read everything and explain the options plainly.
She is flying home to Takoradi with her two children for a funeral, and the trip is in three weeks. She isn’t sure which vaccines or malaria tablets they need, and her regular clinic can’t see them in time.
Kofi is 44 and hasn’t seen a doctor in years. Something has been bothering him that he doesn’t want to raise at the family clinic, where his aunt works the front desk. He wants a private conversation with a licensed clinician.
Her uncle in Tamale had a stroke last month and is home now. Abena is the one everyone calls. She needs help understanding the discharge notes and what questions to ask at his next appointment.
Her father in Lagos was told he needs prostate surgery. Her brothers want to fly him to London. Ngozi wants a specialist to look at the biopsy first, and she wants her father to stay in charge of his own decision.
These are illustrative stories based on situations families commonly face. Names and details are invented.
