This week, members of the Santiago Partnership team had the privilege to work with 2nd year medical students from Michigan State University in Cayambe. The students prepared a 7 station medical clinic to give individuals and families a general check up and then refer them to our clinic. On Friday and Saturday, the students saw around 250 patients in the central park of Cayambe. There were different stations for checking heart and lung sounds, ears and then cleaning them, eyes and then providing lenses, lung function, nutrition information and blood pressure, height and weight as well as education about teeth! It was an honor to work with these students and future doctors. They came with hearts to serve and they served indeed! A special shout out to Sarna Becker, a good friend and missionary who put this whole idea together! What an example you all are!
