Our Mission
“Ezi” (pronounced ehh-zee) is an Igbo root word meaning good. Often people fall subject to diseases that could have been prevented had they had access to needed resources or the right care provider. Patients, regardless of age, race, or background, should have access to medical providers that are aware of how all components of one’s life impact health outcomes. We named this platform Ezi Health to emphasize our mission: to promote health care connections that are good for all. We do this through creating spaces for people to ask health related questions and receive answers from specialists in the health and wellness field. We also do this through our online platform which has various health tips and information for those interested.
