Biography

ENT Doctor Lufunda Lukama is passionate about advancing the practice of ENT surgery and medical education in Zambia. The severe shortage of ENT doctors and the low levels of knowledge with regard to ENT disease management among health workers in Zambia compromises patient care, and needs urgent attention. As a specialist in ENT, he hopes to improve ENT medical training among health care students and in-service health workers in order to improve the care of ENT patients. The PhD in ENT will enhance his teaching and research skills, provide him better opportunities for collaboration and expand his knowledge about ENT health provision and medication.
