BSc in Physiotherapy

About

He is best known for his leadership of the Cameroon Society of Physiotherapy (CASP National), where he served as National President for the maximum allowable limit of two consecutive three-year terms. Under his leadership, the organization focused on expanding clinical standards, regulating practitioners, and strengthening regional bureaus such as CASP Littoral. Career & Impact Association Leadership: As President of CASP, he represented approximately 400 practicing physiotherapists across Cameroon. He advocated for autonomy in physical therapy, allowing practitioners to assess, diagnose, and treat patients independently. Global Collaboration: He served as the primary liaison between local Cameroonian physical therapists and global medical networks like World Physiotherapy. This work helped elevate the international recognition of Cameroonian healthcare practices. Institutional Governance: Following his constitutional step-down from the CASP presidency in late 2024, he has continued to oversee transitional leadership, professional mentoring, and institutional compliance within the country's rehabilitation medicine sectors.
