Quality Program with Enriching Opportunities

Thomas Suh
University of Pittsburgh

My experience of Kenya through this program was amazing, not only because of amazing people I was able to meet, but quality of the program and enriching opportunities I was able to participate in. Food from the house was amazing, safety was not a concern for me (because it’s safe around the house!), people are amazingly welcoming, and unforgettable experiences! I was able to further enrich myself in the field of medicine, especially plastic surgery. By jumping into the scene, I was able to first-hand experience what the physicians may handle daily.
