These awards come confirming reports from WHO that 70% of Ghana’s population ‘depend exclusively on traditional and alternative medicine for their health care.
According to the organisers people’s views on health, no matter where they are in the world, are shaped by their cultural and traditional beliefs.
Therefore, there is no doubt that many people in Ghana fully accept modern, science-based medicine, but traditional medicine is still held in high regards, as it gives validity to the overall health experience
Dr George Donkor CEO of Nobel Trust Clinic in an interview after the awards expressed his profound gratitude to the organisers for recognising his contribution in promoting quality and affordable health care through herbal and alternatives means.

“I know this award is to also urge me to reach out to save more lives and be more committed in ensuring that the people of Ghana and beyond benefit from our modernized traditional medicines.
Meanwhile, herbal and alternative medicine is said to be one of the major sources that support government to keep the economy moving in terms of healthcare delivery, employment, research, export etc.
However, an appeal has been made to government to consider the herbal and alternative industry when creating department of ministry so that they can have a direct access of channeling their concerns and challenges.
