Benadak Herbal Clinic, Ho Central MP promote early detection in Comunity Health screening

Benadak Herbal Clinic and Ho Central MP Richmond Edem Kofi Kpotosu organized a community health screening event as part of the 2026 Asorgli Te celebrations. Held at the Asorgli Palace, the event provided free medical assessments and screenings for various health conditions such as breast, cervical, liver, and kidney diseases. Dr. Ben Tutu, the clinic's head of the medical team, emphasized the importance of early detection for many serious health issues that may not show symptoms initially.

Over 300 people attended the screening, with a significant number of elderly women being screened for breast and cervical cancer, as well as comprehensive digital health assessments for others. More than 30 participants also received liver- and kidney-related screenings. The Health Coordinator for the Ho Central Constituency, Franklin Fiagbor, commended the turnout and the availability of preventive healthcare services to residents.

In addition to medical screenings, more than 150 people had their National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) cards renewed for free, ensuring continued access to healthcare. Residents expressed appreciation for the initiative, urging Benadak Herbal Clinic to organize similar events more frequently to promote preventive healthcare in their community.
