When I first heard of Dr Miriam Mutebi, I expected someone much older, around 65 or 70, due to her impressive resume, but it turns out she is much younger having completed studying General Surgery in 2012.

Her achievements include being the first female breast cancer surgeon in Kenya and numerous appointments, including co-chair of a government task force tasked to design an effective cancer management structure in Kenya.
