KCMC is a consultant referral hospital at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, providing services for a catchment area with an approximate population of 12 million people. Dr. Urasa is particularly interested and involved in the care of neurology patients in the African setting, most of who are generally overlooked by the medical practitioners in the area and thus left without diagnoses and care.<\/p>\n<h2>Other Appointments:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Lecturer, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical College, Moshi, Tanzania<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Education \/ Honors:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>MSc Clinical Neurology, University College London at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London, UK, 2010<\/li>\n<li>Master of Medicine, MMed, Internal Medicine, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical College of Tumaini University, Moshi, Tanzania, 2007<\/li>\n<li>Postgraduate training, Gastro-Intestinal Endoscopy, Radboud University, Nijmegen, Netherlands, 2006<br \/>\nMedical Degree, MB ChB, Makerere University Medical School, Kampala, Uganda, 2001<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Resources:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kcmc.ac.tz\">www.kcmc.ac.tz<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Medical Association of Tanzania: <a href=\"http:\/\/mat-tz.org\/\">http:\/\/mat-tz.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Medical Women Association of Tanzania: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mewata.org\/MEWATA\">www.mewata.org\/MEWATA<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"padding\">\n\t\t<br style=\"clear:left;\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<div class=\"treat_right_column top\"><div class=\"padding\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"fellow_logo\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kcmc.ac.tz\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ipcrc.net\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/kcmc.jpg\" title=\"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre\" alt=\"Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre\" width=\"118\" height=\"54\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipcrc.net\/news\/category\/international-fellows\/\">Fellows Page<\/a><\/strong><\/p> \n<div id=\"video_list_container\" class=\"scroller\">\n<!-- jQuery populates this area -->\n<\/div>\n<h3>Subscribe to IPCRC.net<\/h3>\n<p>New videos and content are released weekly.
