“The Angel Clinic” in Kisii

“The Angel Clinic” in Kisii

Pictured are the local women of Kisii and the two Kisii CCC certified cervical cancer screeners and cryotherapists, Edna Gakii NP and Violet Nasenya RN. Kisii is the largest city in Kisii County, which serves approximately 1.7 million people. This clinic has a 10% HIV positive rate. Edna and Violet are excited to have learned the skills to treat precancerous cervical lesions. Both have provided cervical cancer screening for the women of Kisii for the past 3 years, but the clinic did not have a cryotherapy machine for treatment when a woman is found to have abnormal cervical lesions. Violet and Edna state, “Now we feel privileged to have the skills and cryotherapy machine because so many lives will be saved.”
