We are pleased to welcome you to PiusKamau.com, the official online home of Dr. Pius Kamau — surgeon, writer, humanitarian, and lifelong advocate for equity, education, and global understanding.
This newly launched website brings together, for the first time in one place, the many strands of Kamau’s work and voice. Readers will find a curated collection of essays, opinion pieces, and long-form reflections on medicine, identity, leadership, and social responsibility, alongside updates on speaking engagements, community initiatives, and ongoing projects. The site is designed to be both an archive and a living space — a place to explore past work and follow what comes next.
A central focus of this new beginning is the forthcoming book Running with Lions, Kamau’s highly anticipated memoir, scheduled for publication in July 2026 by Koehler Books. In Running with Lions, Kamau traces a deeply personal journey from his early life in Kenya through his international medical training and career as a surgeon in the United States. The book weaves together themes of resilience, courage, cultural crossing, and the moral responsibilities of healing — offering a story that is at once intimate and universally resonant.
The launch of PiusKamau.com marks a renewed commitment to storytelling as a tool for connection and change. Whether you are a longtime reader, a colleague, or a first-time visitor, this site is an invitation to engage with ideas that challenge, inform, and inspire — and to follow the road toward Running with Lions and beyond.
Welcome, and thank you for being part of the journey.
