The Diagnostic Herbal Clinic, a certified alternative medicine facility located in Takoradi, with a new branch in Accra, is increasing its popularity in the treatment of chronic diseases with herbal medicine.
The clinic which is fast spreading its tentacles across the country has become a one-stop shop for people living with chronic diseases, and would want to try something aside orthodox healthcare in the country.
It has been treating patients with chronic diseases such as HIV, high blood pressure, among others.
The clinic branch in Accra is at Sowutuom, close to the Pentecost University College.
Diagnostic Herbal Clinic which was opened four years ago has particularly recorded impressive results in the treatment of HIV.
Patients who started HIV treatment at the clinic last year are beginning to see a decrease in their viral loads — the amount of viruses in their immune system, thereby, giving them succour.
One of the patients whose viral loads were 160, 577 cp/ml when she began her treatment at DH Clinic in June 2015 had it reduced to 46,386cp/ml by January 2016.
Test results of the viral load of the same patient in June 2016 further showed a drastic reduction to 722cp/ml.
“Since we started full operations of running our clinic most of patients have seen much more tremendous improvement in various treatments,” Dr Yaw Owusu Gyapong, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Diagnostic Herbal Clinic in Takoradi, said.
He said a lot of people from outside Ghana and Eastern Region have passed through the clinic whose treatment is 100 percent herbal medicine.
Dr Owusu Gyapong stated that the clinic uses massage— both manual and machine— and works to give the patients the right diagnosis through its sophisticated diagnosis equipment managed by certified doctors, nurses, scientists and herbal practitioners with longstanding practice.
“Diagnostic Herbal Clinic is the right place for your treatment and we have the professional hands to take good care of you,” he said.
