"The hardest part of getting better is being heard. We start there."

Akoma is a family clinic for the everyday things that matter. Same-day appointments, unhurried visits, and a team that already knows your name when you walk in.
Most of the things that bring people into a family clinic are not emergencies. They are the questions that have been sitting on your mind for two weeks, the rash that turned darker, the headache you have stopped noticing. Akoma is built for those visits. Long enough to be heard. Short enough to be on with your day.
WhatsApp, web, or a call. You choose the doctor and the time. We confirm in a few minutes.
A short wait on the bench, a glass of cold water, and we keep the music low. No paperwork pile.
The doctor sits at your level. We ask, we listen, we examine. No rushing you out for the next patient.
A short summary, the prescription, and any lab results when they come in. Read it on the trotro home.
A boutique clinic does a small number of things very well. These are ours. If we are not the right room for you, we will tell you, and we will help you find one.
The bread and butter of any family clinic. Coughs, colds, blood pressure, blood sugar, stomach trouble, ear and skin. Most visits start here and end here.
Cycle, contraception, fertility worries, pregnancy planning, menopause. A female doctor available every weekday morning.
The full childhood schedule, kept on file. Reminders on WhatsApp before each one falls due. Mild illness, growth checks, behaviour.
Yellow fever, typhoid, hep A and B, malaria prophylaxis. Pre-travel reviews for the diaspora coming home for Christmas. A short letter for school or work if you need it.
Most of the things we prescribe, you can pick up on your way out. The rest get a clear WhatsApp note with where to find them.
Bloods drawn on site. Results back to your phone, usually the same day. Larger imaging goes through our partner across the road.

Dr. Ama OwusuFounder & family medicine
Trained at Korle Bu and Manchester. Eighteen years in family medicine. Believes the best consultation starts with twenty minutes of quiet listening.
Trained at UGMS and the Royal College of Physicians. Heart, blood pressure and diabetes. Has the patience of a librarian and the curiosity of one too.
Twelve years in paediatric vaccination. The reason children do not cry when they see the needle. Holds the whole rhythm of the clinic together.
A pharmacy room behind the consultation rooms, run by our resident pharmacist. We carry the medicines we prescribe most often, so most visits end with a brown paper bag, not a list of three other shops to go to.
Yes, when we can. We try to keep two slots open each day for walk-ins, but a booked slot is always faster. WhatsApp us and we will tell you the next opening.
We accept the major private insurers in Ghana and NHIS for select services. We will tell you what is covered before you sit down with the doctor.
A short intake at the front, a short wait on the bench, and twenty quiet minutes with the doctor. We send you home with a one-page summary and the next step on WhatsApp.
Under sixteen, we ask a parent or guardian to come along. For teenagers, we make the room comfortable for a private conversation if that is what they prefer.
Results arrive on WhatsApp with a short note from the doctor. If anything needs a follow-up, we will tell you clearly and book the time.
The best way to start with a new clinic is a short first visit. Fifteen minutes, no commitment. We will sit, listen, and tell you honestly whether we are the right room for you.
Tell us who is coming and what you would like to talk about. We will hold a slot and confirm within thirty minutes during opening hours.
Same-day visits available Mon–Sat. New patients always welcome.
