Dr Afiniki Akanet
Hello and thank you for your interest in my work. I love encouraging people to make the most of their opportunities and achieve their goals in life. As someone who has had to overcome many challenges in life, as shared in my first book, Fortitude, I am passionate about encouraging people to keep going despite their challenges.
I am a practising GP (General Practitioner/family doctor) with a special interest in mental health. I also enjoy speaking at events and conferences about topics I write about. There is information about my books, podcast and Forte Charity on this website. I'm so glad you visited. Please connect with me on social media to keep in touch, and/or send me a message here. Have a great day!
