Each year, one resident from our program (typically as part of the Wilderness Medicine Track) has the opportunity to participate in our global health trip to Peru. This year Dr. Wilson (PGY-1) and Dr. Gerbasi partnered with the University of Mary to serve in Ayavari, Peru. Thanks to for sharing these pictures from their trip! This trip provides the opportunity to care for patients in underserved communities while gaining valuable perspective on medicine beyond the walls of our usual clinics and hospitals.
From meaningful patient interactions, including running a trauma with the local physicians, to utilizing POCUS in resource-limited settings, the trip highlighted the importance of adaptability, teamwork, and compassionate care.
We are grateful to the patients, providers, interpreters, and communities who welcomed our team so warmly, and proud of the continued global health opportunities within our residency program.
