When you meet Dr Anthony Kenyanya, 53, a consultant oral and maxillofacial surgeon, you might not immediately grasp what his work entails. But in his soft, deliberate tone, he paints vivid pictures of the patients he treats and the complex reconstructions he performs, from public hospitals to private clinics. From gunshot wounds and knife injuries to domestic accidents and violent encounters, Dr Kenyanya has spent 29 years quite literally putting people back together.
