Mother. Doctor. Advocate for the Upstate.

Meet Octavia

I’m Octavia Amaechi, a family physician and community advocate in South Carolina with nearly 15 years of experience caring for families in the Upstate. I am running for the South Carolina Senate to bring a physician's perspective to policy-making and address how bad policies limit quality healthcare.

I understand the challenges we face—unreliable healthcare access, educational barriers, and a lack of affordable services like housing and transportation—all of which impact our well-being. For the first time in decades, voters in SC Senate District 12 have a choice on the ballot, and you deserve a representative who understands these struggles.

With my experience in healthcare policy and community advocacy, I am uniquely qualified to represent you.

Meet Octavia
