Testimonials

"At pharmacy school, I had little interaction with HIV patients, but in Zambia I spoke directly to patients about their illness and how it affected their lives."

"On the table were hundreds of boxes containing all kinds of medication in every language imaginable – slightly out of date, boxes slightly damaged."

"Women had to bring with them what they needed: linen, medication, gauze, syringes, umbilical clamps, a razor blade, food, and water."

"Part way through the treatment the power went out and the entire operatory plunged into complete darkness. I felt a little hand grab hold of my finger. It held on until the power came back!"

"When patients came in for wound care, I had to use the paper provided in sterile gloves as the sterile field because there were no pre-filled wound care kits available."
