Our trip to Bocas Del Toro, Panama provided us the unique opportunity to explore what cross-cultural health care looks like in a rural setting. The majority of our time was spent hosting a clinic in a rural town where we assisted physicians in providing birth control injections, de-worming medication, ultrasound for pregnant women to screen for complications, reading glasses, and health education. There was also plenty of time for team activities such as eating tasty food in Bocas Town, shopping, swimming in the river, and snorkeling! --Daniel Malouf (MECN Class of 2018)
