Extending Compassionate Care Abroad

Our program encourages residents to learn about international healthcare and offers residents the opportunity to bring the spirit of healing abroad during a global health rotation. Residents are not only able to extend their compassionate care to our neighbors abroad, but also learn about different healthcare infrastructures as well as cultural sensitivity and appreciation in medicine. Our residents have volunteered their time and commitment to many healthcare sites, with a fostered relationship at clinical sites in Kenya, Honduras and India. With the guidance of our faculty member Dr. Amy Wood, who is an astute neonatologist and our passionate global healthcare leader, we can create an individualized elective rotation that will best suit your educational needs.
