Dr. Catherine N. Nyongesa
Kenya is ushering in a new era in breast cancer treatment with the groundbreaking *Wiki Moja (One Week)* radiotherapy innovation — reducing treatment duration from the traditional three weeks to just *five days*, without compromising effectiveness.
This transformative approach is *led by Dr. Catherine N. Nyongesa, Kenya’s first female oncologist and founder of the **Texas Cancer Center*, alongside a dedicated team of local specialists. Their work is redefining access to quality cancer care for women across the country.
With *Wiki Moja*, patients can complete life-saving radiotherapy more quickly, spend less time away from work and family, and make fewer hospital visits — all while maintaining world-class treatment outcomes.
Grounded in evidence and guided by compassion, the Wiki Moja model demonstrates how *African-led innovation* can set global benchmarks in oncology. By shortening waiting times and expanding access to advanced radiotherapy, Kenya is giving thousands of families renewed *hope, dignity, and time.*
