A life changing trip!

I have been to this site twice now in 2012 and 2013 and have nothing but good things to say! The experiences that I had with the trips (shadowing local physicians, helping with local health fairs, and participating in public health presentations to name a few) are what solidified my desire to become a doctor. I never felt that I was in harm's way or unsafe; FIMRC staff is always present and the people of Restauracion treat you like family from day one. The fun day trips were exciting as well and included a trip to see and swim in waterfalls. Overall, I gained so much from this experience and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in pursuing a career in the health field, especially public health or rural medicine.
