Great experience

This internship was a great way to gain experience, learn in a medical environment, and a way to help local people in need. Throughout this program I got the opportunity to met and work under amazing doctors who have inspired me beyond my expectation. I was able to work hands on with patients and interact with them on a daily basis where I felt a sense of community. Learning in this environment is very enriching.
