Meet Dr. Evangeline Obi – Founder of MYAFA Inc.

As a dedicated physician with years of experience in family medicine and community health, Dr. Evangeline Obi’s passion for helping underserved populations has been the cornerstone of her medical journey. Her career began in free clinics in Lynchburg, Virginia, where she organized group smoking cessation programs to support local communities. Later, while working in Wisconsin, she provided care at free clinics and discovered the power of teamwork and grassroots efforts to improve public health.

Dr. Obi’s work as a faculty member with the Family Medicine Residency Program at Prince George’s Hospital Center brought her closer to a vision of holistic health care. She organized free health screenings and led the first-ever community health fair, witnessing the profound impact these initiatives had on her patients. Her research on mindfulness and wellness led to measurable outcomes, with participants losing weight and managing their chronic health conditions, such as diabetes and hypertension, with renewed hope.

Driven by a desire to make health care accessible and personalized, Dr. Obi founded MYAFA Inc. in 2021. The mission was clear: to create a holistic health platform that offers physical, mental, and spiritual support. With a strong team that includes nutritionists, fitness experts, counselors, and social workers, MYAFA Inc. addresses not only the medical needs of its patients but also their social and emotional well-being.

Dr. Obi’s belief in the power of community and collaborative care is the heartbeat of MYAFA Inc. “It’s not just about managing diseases; it’s about guiding patients through their health journeys, being present with them, and helping them regain control over their lives,” she says. Her goal is to support every individual who comes through the doors of MYAFA Inc. in achieving a 25% improvement in their health within three to six months—whether it’s controlling diabetes, managing blood pressure, or achieving sustainable weight loss.

At MYAFA Inc., Dr. Obi ensures that the care provided is not only compassionate and comprehensive but also accessible to all. Her commitment to reducing health barriers, supporting those in need, and fostering long-term wellness is why MYAFA Inc. continues to be a beacon of hope for many.
