About
My name is Penoshinge L Shikonga, a 35 year old female medical doctor. I was born in the northern part of Namibia and schooled there. I did my undergraduate in medicine and surgery at university of Pretoria, South Africa in 2010. I did my 2 years of internship at Katutura Intermediate Hospital in Windhoek, Namibia. I worked as a medical officer in the department of urology for 5 years where I subsequently took a role of senior medical officer for 2 years where I was involved in the decision making of the department. I am currently a second year registrar in urology at Sefako Makgatho Health Science University/ Dr George Mukhari Academic Hospital, Pretoria, South Africa. During my career as a medical officer in urology I have released the great need of urologists in my country and this strengthened my aspiration for urology. My dream is to see decentralisation of urological services across the country (Namibia).
