Meet BRIGADER:
Mustafa Kaghazwala
Western University of Health Sciences, Medical Student Year 2
ABOUT MY TRIP:
"The trip with Global Medical Brigades to Nicaragua was overall a fantastic experience for me. I got the chance to be immersed in a culture other than my own and I got the privilege of giving medical aid to people who really needed it.""Overall, I really enjoyed the chance I got to work with Ivy and Dr. Mumford. They both allowed me to do a history, make a clinical diagnosis, and make a recommendation as to what pharmaceuticals should be given. This experience really allowed me to learn a lot and made me feel like a doctor in training as opposed to just a student with all the studying I do for classes in the states. ""Also, we all got an opportunity to go to a waterfall in Nicaragua the last day we were there. It was amazing going to such a beautiful waterfall and having the entire thing all to ourselves."

After the completion of the construction we engraved our names into the cement on the wall of the latrine. |
