The Tanimu Foundation began offering free treatment and medical education in 2010 at the National Hospital Abuja in Nigeria. This program will be carried on each year to support medical education and gastroenterology treatment in the region.
In 2010, Dr. Tanimu performed free upper endoscopy and colonoscopy procedures for approximately 25 patients at the National Hospital Abuja in Nigeria. He also lectured and led hands-on training sessions on the latest gastroenterology techniques.
Corporate Supporters
The foundation received corporate support from Wilson Cook Medical and Boston Scientific. Both companies provided accessories and supplies for performing endoscopy, including biopsy forceps, snares and esophageal balloon dilators.
