At the end of 2017, Dr. Brown was graciously invited to work as a visiting professor and spine surgeon at FOCOS (Foundation of Orthopedics and Complex Spine) with the world renowned Dr. Oheneba Boachie-Adjei of Hospital of Special Surgery. Dr. Boachie-Adjei founded FOCOS in 1998 and built the hospital grounds in 2012, it is the only orthopedic hospital in West Africa. This hospital is dedicated to the people of Africa and specializes in complex spine and joint replacement surgeries. It has been a true gift for Dr. Brown to work alongside an exceptionally dedicated group of doctors and staff that provide such an excellent level of care.
