About Dr. Solomon
Alfred Solomon, graduated from the University of Ghana Medical School in February 2012, and after clinical experience in both public and private healthcare sectors, he decided to pursue a career in internal medicine, gaining acceptance into the internal medicine residency program at Cook County Hospital in Chicago in July 2017.
He later chose the nationally-ranked nephrology fellowship training program at Emory University in urban Atlanta, which exposed him to an impressively diverse patient demographic. That extensive training in all aspects of clinical nephrology and transplantation would equip him with the requisite skills, insight and confidence to enter private practice as a kidney specialist upon graduation.
