Young Ghanaian Man Who Started as a Cleaner in the U.S. Becomes Neurosurgeon, Fulfills Dream

Kwadwo Sarpong, a Ghanaian immigrant who started as a hospital cleaner in the U.S., fulfilled his dream of becoming a neurosurgeon after pursuing medical studies and is now a Neurosurgery Resident at Vanderbilt Medical Center.

Kwadwo Sarpong, a young African man from Ghana, has realized his dream of becoming a neurosurgeon after beginning his life in the United States as a hospital cleaner.

Kwadwo immigrated to the U.S. after winning a visa lottery and initially struggled with the realities of life in America, including facing racism and challenges finding work. He began working as a cleaner at Northside Hospital Gwinnett, where his passion for medicine grew after observing doctors in the operating room.

During this time, Kwadwo met Dr. Robert Fritz, a General Thoracic Surgeon, who became a mentor and encouraged him to pursue a medical career. Inspired by both Dr. Fritz and his brother’s mobility disability, Kwadwo decided to attend medical school. He began by studying at a community college to build a foundation in chemistry, physics, and biology, and then earned a Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology from Emory University.

Kwadwo continued his studies at Georgetown University, where he earned both a Medical Certificate and a Doctor of Medicine qualification. He is now a Neurosurgery Resident at Vanderbilt Medical Center in the U.S., successfully achieving his lifelong goal.
