A United States of America, USA, based Nigerian Medical Doctor, Christopher Ayo Otiko has discovered a drug called TETRACYTE for the treatment of diabetic ulcer.

The drug has been medically certified as the world’s most potent drug for the treatment of diabetic ulcer, according to the Drugs Agency in the United States as it “heals ten times faster than any available drug for the treatment of diabetic ulcer”.

Dr Otiko, who is the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Medical Director, ViaDerma Inc, hails from Akure, Ondo State. He is currently in Nigeria on the invitation of some government agencies interested in collaborating and partnering  with him.

Dr Otiko, a Podiatric Specialist, who has nearly 20 years of medical experience as a foot and ankle surgeon, treating such conditions as life threatening burns among others, is Board Certified in the prevention and treatment of Diabetic wounds.

Dr. Otiko’s commitment to patient care and cutting-edge medical technology had led him to also found numerous healthcare businesses that provide specialty products.

He has been treating patients suffering from the devastating effects of peripheral neuropathy for the past 18 (eighteen) years and there is no treatment as effective as Neurogenx.

A short profile of Dr. Christopher Ayo Otiko a Nigerian born Medical Doctor in the United States, showed that he completed his graduate studies at Oklahoma State University and earned his Doctorate from the California College of Podiatric Medicine in San Francisco with residencies at Pacific Coast Hospital and San Francisco General Hospital.

According to the profile, “The Podiatry specialist who has nearly 20 years of medical experience as a foot and ankle surgeon, treating such conditions as life threatening burns etc, is Board Certified in the prevention and treatment of Diabetic wounds.

“Dr. Otiko’s commitment to patient care and cutting-edge medical technology had led him to found numerous healthcare businesses that provide specialty products.

“He has been treating patients suffering from the devastating effects of peripheral neuropathy for the past 18 years and there is no treatment as effective as Neurogenx.

“Dr Otiko wants to devote the rest of his career to treating as many people as possible- to relieve their pain and help them get their lives back, and this led to the innovative creation of a new type of topical antibiotic, Vitastem, which is a major contributor to his unbelievable success story in diabetes treatment.

“Vitastem is approved and acknowledged by the  Food and Drugs agency in the United States to be the world’s most potent drug for the treatment of Diabetes, as the drug heals *ten times faster* than any available drug for the treatment of diabetes.
