FHU alumnus launches medical textbook

Dr. Joseph Adam Dadzie, an alumnus of Family Health University, has launched a medical textbook, becoming the first graduate of the institution to author one. Dr. Joseph Adam Dadzie, also known as Adam Paradise, launched his book titled Student-Oriented Clinical Examination Skills (Medicine) at a ceremony.

The book was written during Dr. Dadzie's years in medical school and completed shortly after graduation. The book focuses on helping medical students prepare effectively for clinical examinations. The Vice Chancellor of the university, Professor Enyonam Yao Kwawukume, described the moment as evidence of how far the university has come in establishing a medical school. Professor Kwawukume said, "We have come a long way in establishing this medical school, and we are proud that one of our own has achieved this." Dr. Emmanuel Labram, Director of Academics and Student Affairs, described the publication as a timely and valuable resource for medical students preparing for clinical examinations.

Student-Oriented Clinical Examination Skills (Medicine) covers physical examinations of all body systems, cranial nerves, and common OSCE cases. The book guides students on how to tackle time-limited OSCE follow-up questions. The book helps students identify clinical signs, report findings, and make accurate diagnoses and management plans.
