Dr Allen Chiura - Success and Significance - Surgeon Leaves Thriving US Practice for his African Homeland

For Dr Allen Chiura, a profound difference exists between success
and significance. Zimbabwean born, this exceptional Urological
Surgeon studied and practiced in the USA for nearly 30 years.
Eight years ago, while living and working in the snowy mountains
of Klamath Falls, OR, he and his wife, also a Zimbabwean doctor,
realized something critical was missing from their lives. With
four beautiful children and thriving medical practices, they
were, by most measures, very successful in the States. Yet, both
felt they could be more "significant" in their homeland. Dr
Chiura returned to Zim in 2012 to open his Urology practice and
facilitate the training of much-needed young surgical
subspecialists. That was just the beginning of a patriotic
journey to serve the nation he left as a young man but never
stopped loving. After a rough start, Dr Chiura now has a thriving
practice and is on the verge of opening a new hospital. He is
Co-President of the Discovereum, the first and only Interactive
Children’s Museum, in Zimbabwe. A former rugby player and avid
golfer, he is a Board Member of the National Sports and
Recreation Commission of Zimbabwe. His life is every bit
significant. Welcome to Dr Chiura's Swan Dive!
