Nigerian Doctor Honored By American Red Cross Society As '2012 Healthcare Hero' For Running Free Hospital In Nigeria

Dr. Osaretin Idusuyi Is an orthopaedic surgeon, he returned to Nigeria after being trained in the United States of America to contribute his quota to the health care sector in the country but was appalled to find that his people lacked basic health care. He therefore sought to rehabilitate the clinic in his community and convert it into a medical center. He makes biannual visits to the hospital and personally pays the salaries of the staff.

For this and many more contributions to healthcare delivery, he was recently honored by the American Red Cross Society.

Dr. Idusuyi, who carrries out his practice at the Orthopedic Center of Illinois, United States of America was among the 11 individuals that were honored by the American Red Cross Society. He was honored with the award of 'Healthcare Hero' for using his own resources to build a free health-care clinic in his native Nigeria.

The list of those that were honored are: (top row from left) Bill and Austin Wilhour, Jack Sunderlik, Ray Wiedle, (middle row) Evan Stevens, Dr. O.B. Idusuyi, Brooklyn Sheppard, Joe Solomon, (bottom row) Rebecca Schick, Kyle Romadka and Elbert Betts.

    My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using Movable-type on numerous websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
