Rachel Zimmerman was one of the students participating on the recent medical trip to the Kazungula area. Thought I'd share with you a glimpse of her experience in rural Zambia:
.
"We spent three days in the Kazungula area and saw about 100 or more patients a day. It impressed me how much patience the Zambian people had. They waited for many hours in line and walked such long distances to be seen by the doctor. Even more impressive to me was the dedication of Dr. Steve Rudman who was accompanying our group from Virginia. Often he stayed at a clinic until the last patient was seen. We were able to test many people for HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria."
