The key reason Amitha Omonuwa decided it was worthwhile to embark on a career as a physician’s assistant, who treats patients, primarily in vascular and endovascular surgery is because he has always been taught that helping people was an essential element of a good life.

Amitha Omonuwa was born and raised in Nigeria and both his parents were physicians, which means he learned early on about the importance of healthcare, as well as the importance of being kind and doing everything possible to give back to their local community, wherever they happen to be. At nearly the same time, Amitha Omonuwa also learned that helping the poor and underserved was an essential element of life. That explains his passion for caring from an early on, but it also explains why he has carried that passion through to the present day.
