In the fast-paced world of social media where trends come and go, one name has remained consistently impactful—Celebrity Nurse Esther. Known off-screen as Esther Ijeoma Francis, she is a registered nurse from Imo State, raised in Lagos, who has become a household name for her unique way of educating women on important health issues using humor, skits, and everyday examples.
Esther isn’t your typical nurse. While she’s trained and certified to work in hospitals, her biggest impact happens on Instagram and TikTok, where her engaging content has earned her nearly half a million followers. What makes her stand out is her fearless approach to discussing taboo topics like sexual health, menstruation, pregnancy, and reproductive wellness—especially in a society where such conversations are often swept under the rug.
“I realized many women didn’t have access to the right information or felt too shy to ask,” she explains. “So I decided to make it easier—to create content that feels like gist with your friend, but backed by facts.”
For Esther, the goal is clear: empower women to understand and take control of their health. Her platform has grown beyond entertainment—it’s now a trusted source of knowledge for thousands of women who turn to her for clarity, comfort, and confidence.
With plans to expand into holistic and integrated health care, Esther is preparing to launch initiatives that address not just physical health, but also mental, emotional, and lifestyle wellness. It’s a natural next step for someone whose passion lies in complete care.
Outside her work, Esther is an avid traveler. She believes exploring new cultures helps her better understand people—and by extension, their health needs. She also credits the guidance of her mentors for shaping her bold and purposeful path.
