Kidney disease affects millions globally, with approximately 850 million people living with the condition, particularly in low-income and lower-middle-income countries where access to conventional treatment is limited due to financial constraints. While modern medicine acknowledges no cure for chronic kidney disease, Dr. Akenteng's purported success suggests otherwise.
Dr. Akenteng, the founder of the Natural Way Herbal Clinic, traces his motivation to his personal experiences witnessing the devastating impact of kidney disease on his loved ones. Recognising the limitations of conventional medical approaches, he embarked on extensive research to develop natural remedies tailored to address the root causes of kidney ailments.

According to him, his methods have yielded remarkable results, with patients experiencing complete recovery in durations as short as 2 to 20 days, a feat conventional treatments seldom achieve over a patient's lifetime. He added that his clientele includes individuals from diverse backgrounds, including foreigners.
In an interview with ModernGhana News, Dr Akenteng criticised the medical terminology used to categorise diseases as "chronic," suggesting it serves commercial interests by perpetuating the sale of chemical drugs. He asserts that diseases like Hepatitis B can be effectively cured through research-backed natural remedies.
