About us
Comprehensive medical care and specialized services designed to meet the diverse healthcare needs of Ugandan communities.
Our Journey
From a single graduate’s vision to a thriving healthcare organization – discover the milestones that shaped MUSAWO into the trusted medical network it is today.
Dr Mathius Senyondo Tsiimwa graduated from Mbarara University School of Medicine as a Medical officer (MBChB), laying the foundation for our healthcare mission.
We registered Allied Doctors and Friends of Uganda (U) Ltd as a Company Ltd by Guarantee #80020001074130 under the Companies Act to champion the noble cause of quality home-based care.
A Health Centre Level IV headed by Dr. Mathius under the names MUSAWO Medicare Services at Zone 8 - Lungujja was birthed out of the need to have a health facility as a base to provide quality home-based care.
By January 2023, we acquired our Operating License under the Uganda Medical Practitioners' Act 1996, officially recognizing our commitment to quality healthcare delivery.

A Uganda where every person can access dignified, affordable and compassionate healthcare at home and in the community.
Our Mission
Through social entrepreneurship, MUSAWO enhances healthcare systems by bringing services closer to families through testing, treatment, and tracking, while training providers to deliver quality, patient-centred, and emotionally supportive care. We operate under ADFA (Allied Doctors and Friends of Uganda), combining sustainable business practices with charitable mission to create lasting impact.
Our Founder's Story
MUSAWO was born from the extraordinary journey of its founder, Dr. Mathius Ssenyondo. Delivered in a banana plantation in Maddu, Gomba District, with only his grandmother’s hands to assist, his difficult birth left lasting marks but ignited an unshakeable purpose.
His father’s desperate plea during that birth—”pull the baby out to save the mother”—became the spark that would drive Mathias to dedicate his life to helping others in their most vulnerable moments
Perseverance Through Adversity
Despite poverty and obstacles, Mathias’s intelligence kept him at the top of his class. Every educational advance depended on bursaries, scholarships, and a community that refused to let his potential fade.
After graduating from Mbarara University of Science and Technology in 2016, his work at Rubaga Hospital and later in Lungujja revealed the wide gap between patients and quality healthcare—a gap that MUSAWO exists to close.
