What is

African Synergy Health

NPO: 2023/521671/08  |   PBO: 930083543

African Synergy Health (ASH) is a registered not-for-profit, public benefit organisation. It is a dream birthed to address the exponential waiting lists comprising of thousands of Urology patients at our public sector and other African Hospitals.

The concept, created by Dr Viola Morolo, supported by Dr Guy Gaudji, Dr Marissa Conradie and Professor Koto has a BIG vision – to have zero patients on elective surgical waiting lists, suffering and often dying.

Our Objectives

The objectives of ASH are to provide better health care and easier access to healthcare facilities for Africans. This will be achieved through improved service delivery, continuous professional development, and afro-centric research.

  • Implement evidence based clinical medicine that is acceptable, available, attainable, affordable, and accessible to patients in need.
  • Building capacity both nationally and on the continent.
  • Education of our citizens at all levels on care.
  • Afro-Centric Research to design an appropriate, acceptable African model that will address the African challenge.
  • Create public-private hospital partnerships where public patients can be operated on at private hospital facilities which are underutilised.

ASH Mandela Week

Celebrating the birth of Mr Nelson Mandela, African Synergy Health aims to perform a minimum of 67 urological and general surgical procedures, from 01 – 24 July 2026 during the Inaugural African Synergy Health Mandela Surgical Marathon.
