“A Historic Milestone for Ethiopian Healthcare and Cancer Care!

St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College (SPHMMC) is proud to announce the successful completion of final examinations for Ethiopia’s very first cohort of Adult Hematology and Medical Oncology fellows!

Launched to bridge the critical gap in specialized cancer and blood care, this fellowship marks a defining leap forward for our national healthcare system. Notably, this inaugural class includes **Dr. Haimanot Wondafrash**, Ethiopia’s first female adult hemato-oncologist—a landmark achievement for women in medicine.

Warmest congratulations to our trailblazing pioneers:

  • Dr. Haimanot Wondafrash
  • Dr. Eyosias Lemma Teshome
  • Dr. Tesfaye Belete

This historic milestone reflects strong vision, leadership, and collaboration. SPHMMC extends deep gratitude to the Ministry of Health – Ethiopia, SPHMMC leadership, People to People USA (P2P), and our dedicated program champions, faculty, and external examiners.

Congratulations to our new specialists as they step forward to transform care and save lives across Ethiopia!”
