Review

I had the incredible opportunity to participate in a summer abroad medical internship in Zanzibar, and it was an experience that exceeded all my expectations. The internship program was well-organised and provided a comprehensive learning experience. The local coordinators were friendly and dedicated to ensuring that we had a meaningful time.

I had the opportunity to work closely with healthcare professionals at a local hospital. As a medical student, this hands-on experience was invaluable. I witnessed firsthand the challenges and triumphs of providing healthcare in a resource-limited setting. The medical team was eager to share their knowledge and expertise with us. From diagnosing diseases to assisting in surgeries, every day was filled with learning and personal growth.

Beyond the medical aspect, Zanzibar's natural beauty and rich history left me in awe. I had the chance to explore stunning beaches with crystal-clear waters. The cultural heritage of the island, with its blend of African, Arab, and Indian influences, was fascinating to immerse myself in.

In conclusion, my summer abroad medical internship in Zanzibar was an unforgettable experience I would highly recommend this internship to any medical student or healthcare professional.
